Remove support for using wait3() in place of waitpid().

All Unix-oid platforms that we currently support should have waitpid(),
since it's in V2 of the Single Unix Spec.  Our git history shows that
the wait3 code was added to support NextStep, which we officially dropped
support for as of 9.2.  So get rid of the configure test, and simplify the
macro spaghetti in reaper().  Per suggestion from Fujii Masao.
Fix mapping of PostgreSQL encodings to Python encodings.

Windows encodings, "win1252" and so forth, are named differently in Python,
like "cp1252". Also, if the PyUnicode_AsEncodedString() function call fails
for some reason, use a plain ereport(), not a PLy_elog(), to report that
error. That avoids recursion and crash, if PLy_elog() tries to call
PLyUnicode_Bytes() again.

This fixes bug reported by Asif Naeem. Backpatch down to 9.0, before that
plpython didn't even try these conversions.

Jan Urbański, with minor comment improvements by me.
Revert part of the previous patch that avoided using PLy_elog().

That caused the plpython_unicode regression test to fail on SQL_ASCII
encoding, as evidenced by the buildfarm. The reason is that with the patch,
you don't get the detail in the error message that you got before. That
detail is actually very informative, so rather than just adjust the expected
output, let's revert that part of the patch for now to make the buildfarm
green again, and figure out some other way to avoid the recursion of
PLy_elog() that doesn't lose the detail.
Don't try to trim "../" in join_path_components().

join_path_components() tried to remove leading ".." components from its
tail argument, but it was not nearly bright enough to do so correctly
unless the head argument was (a) absolute and (b) canonicalized.
Rather than try to fix that logic, let's just get rid of it: there is no
correctness reason to remove "..", and cosmetic concerns can be taken
care of by a subsequent canonicalize_path() call.  Per bug #6715 from
Greg Davidson.

Back-patch to all supported branches.  It appears that pre-9.2, this
function is only used with absolute paths as head arguments, which is why
we'd not noticed the breakage before.  However, third-party code might be
expecting this function to work in more general cases, so it seems wise
to back-patch.

In HEAD and 9.2, also make some minor cosmetic improvements to callers.
Merge branch 'master' into fklocks
make diff nicer
Fix PGDATAOLD and PGDATANEW to properly set pgconfig location, per
report from Tom.

Backpatch to 9.2.
Fix failure of new wchar->mb functions to advance from pointer.

Bug spotted by Tom Lane.
Update pg_upgrade comments for recent configpath fix.
Fix spacing in copyright.pl after being run with missing regex slash
(now added).

Backpatch to 9.2.
Fix copyright.pl to properly skip the .git directory by adding a
basename() qualification.
Modify copyright.pl so all lines are processed, not just the first
match, so files that contain embedded copyrights are updated, e.g.
pgsql/help.c.

Backpatch to 9.2.
Have copyright.pl skip updating something that is just the current year,
to avoid producing dups, e.g. 2012-2012

Backpatch to 9.2.
Run updated copyright.pl on HEAD and 9.2 trees, updating the psql
\copyright output to 2012.

Backpatch to 9.2.
Update libpq test expected output

Commit 2b443063 changed wording for some of the error messages, but
neglected updating the regress output to match.
Convert libpq regress script to Perl

This should ease its use on the Windows build environment.
Simplify and document regex library's compact-NFA representation.

The previous coding abused the first element of a cNFA state's arcs list
to hold a per-state flag bit, which was confusing, undocumented, and not
even particularly efficient.  Get rid of that in favor of a separate
"stflags" vector.  Since there's only one bit in use, I chose to allocate a
char per state; we could possibly replace this with a bitmap at some point,
but that would make accesses a little slower.  It's already about 8X
smaller than before, so let's not get overly tense.

Also document the representation better than it was before, which is to say
not at all.

This patch is a byproduct of investigations towards extracting a "fixed
prefix" string from the compact-NFA representation of regex patterns.
Might need to back-patch it if we decide to back-patch that fix, but for
now it's just code cleanup so I'll just put it in HEAD.
Fix planner to pass correct collation to operator selectivity estimators.

We can do this without creating an API break for estimation functions
by passing the collation using the existing fmgr functionality for
passing an input collation as a hidden parameter.

The need for this was foreseen at the outset, but we didn't get around to
making it happen in 9.1 because of the decision to sort all pg_statistic
histograms according to the database's default collation.  That meant that
selectivity estimators generally need to use the default collation too,
even if they're estimating for an operator that will do something
different.  The reason it's suddenly become more interesting is that
regexp interpretation also uses a collation (for its LC_TYPE not LC_COLLATE
property), and we no longer want to use the wrong collation when examining
regexps during planning.  It's not that the selectivity estimate is likely
to change much from this; rather that we are thinking of caching compiled
regexps during planner estimation, and we won't get the intended benefit
if we cache them with a different collation than the executor will use.

Back-patch to 9.1, both because the regexp change is likely to get
back-patched and because we might as well get this right in all
collation-supporting branches, in case any third-party code wants to
rely on getting the collation.  The patch turns out to be minuscule
now that I've done it ...
Refactor pattern_fixed_prefix() to avoid dealing in incomplete patterns.

Previously, pattern_fixed_prefix() was defined to return whatever fixed
prefix it could extract from the pattern, plus the "rest" of the pattern.
That definition was sensible for LIKE patterns, but not so much for
regexes, where reconstituting a valid pattern minus the prefix could be
quite tricky (certainly the existing code wasn't doing that correctly).
Since the only thing that callers ever did with the "rest" of the pattern
was to pass it to like_selectivity() or regex_selectivity(), let's cut out
the middle-man and just have pattern_fixed_prefix's subroutines do this
directly.  Then pattern_fixed_prefix can return a simple selectivity
number, and the question of how to cope with partial patterns is removed
from its API specification.

While at it, adjust the API spec so that callers who don't actually care
about the pattern's selectivity (which is a lot of them) can pass NULL for
the selectivity pointer to skip doing the work of computing a selectivity
estimate.

This patch is only an API refactoring that doesn't actually change any
processing, other than allowing a little bit of useless work to be skipped.
However, it's necessary infrastructure for my upcoming fix to regex prefix
extraction, because after that change there won't be any simple way to
identify the "rest" of the regex, not even to the low level of fidelity
needed by regex_selectivity.  We can cope with that if regex_fixed_prefix
and regex_selectivity communicate directly, but not if we have to work
within the old API.  Hence, back-patch to all active branches.
Re-implement extraction of fixed prefixes from regular expressions.

To generate btree-indexable conditions from regex WHERE conditions (such as
WHERE indexed_col ~ '^foo'), we need to be able to identify any fixed
prefix that a regex might have; that is, find any string that must be a
prefix of all strings satisfying the regex.  We used to do that with
entirely ad-hoc code that looked at the source text of the regex.  It
didn't know very much about regex syntax, which mostly meant that it would
fail to identify some optimizable cases; but Viktor Rosenfeld reported that
it would produce actively wrong answers for quantified parenthesized
subexpressions, such as '^(foo)?bar'.  Rather than trying to extend the
ad-hoc code to cover this, let's get rid of it altogether in favor of
identifying prefixes by examining the compiled form of a regex.

To do this, I've added a new entry point "pg_regprefix" to the regex library;
hopefully it is defined in a sufficiently general fashion that it can remain
in the library when/if that code gets split out as a standalone project.

Since this bug has been there for a very long time, this fix needs to get
back-patched.  However it depends on some other recent commits (particularly
the addition of wchar-to-database-encoding conversion), so I'll commit this
separately and then go to work on back-porting the necessary fixes.
