Fix lack of precision in numeric stddev/variance.

time zones.
SQL99 spec requires a default of zero (round to seconds) which is set
in gram.y as typmod is set in the parse tree. We *could* change to a
default of either 6 (for internal compatibility with previous versions)
or 2 (for external compatibility with previous versions).
Evaluate entries in pg_proc wrt the iscachable attribute for timestamp and
other date/time types. Try to recognize cases where side effects like the
current time zone setting may have an effect on results to decide whether
something is cachable or not.

for speed reasons; its result type also changes to int8. avg() on these
datatypes now accumulates the running sum in int8 for speed; but we still
deliver the final result as numeric, so that fractional accuracy is
preserved.
count() now counts and returns in int8, not int4. I am a little nervous
about this possibly breaking users' code, but there didn't seem to be
a strong sentiment for avoiding the problem. If we get complaints during
beta, we can change count back to int4 and add a "count8" aggregate.
For that matter, users can do it for themselves with a simple CREATE
AGGREGATE command; the int4inc function is still present, so no C hacking
is needed.
Also added max() and min() aggregates for OID that do proper unsigned
comparison, instead of piggybacking on int4 aggregates.
initdb forced.

give consistent results for all datatypes. Types float4, float8, and
numeric were broken for NaN values; abstime, timestamp, and interval
were broken for INVALID values; timetz was just plain broken (some
possible pairs of values were neither < nor = nor >). Also clean up
text, bpchar, varchar, and bit/varbit to eliminate duplicate code and
thereby reduce the probability of similar inconsistencies arising in
the future.

Although it was now using the right equation, it was making bogus choices
of the precision to compute intermediate results to. I'm not sure this
is really right even yet, but it's better than before ...

values, whether the local char type is signed or not. This is necessary
for portability. Per discussion on pghackers around 9/16/00.

At this point I think it'd be possible to make float4 be pass-by-value
without too much work --- and float8 too on machines where Datum is
8 bytes. Something to try when the mood strikes, anyway.

I did not force. I marked numeric as compressable-but-not-move-off-able,
partly to test that storage mode and partly because I've got doubts
that numerics are large enough to need external storage.

There's now only one transition value and transition function.
NULL handling in aggregates is a lot cleaner. Also, use Numeric
accumulators instead of integer accumulators for sum/avg on integer
datatypes --- this avoids overflow at the cost of being a little slower.
Implement VARIANCE() and STDDEV() aggregates in the standard backend.
Also, enable new LIKE selectivity estimators by default. Unrelated
change, but as long as I had to force initdb anyway...

we'll get there one day.
Use `cat' to create aclocal.m4, not `aclocal'. Some people don't
have automake installed.
Only run the autoconf rule in the top-level GNUmakefile if the
invoker specified `make configure', don't run it automatically
because of CVS timestamp skew.

port testing ...

inputs have been converted to newstyle. This should go a long way towards
fixing our portability problems with platforms where char and short
parameters are passed differently from int-width parameters. Still
more to do for the Alpha port however.

(ie, allow rounding to occur at a digit position left of the decimal
point). Apparently this is how Oracle handles it, and there are
precedents in other programming languages as well.

as a unary minus operator for numeric. Now that long numeric constants
will get converted to NUMERIC in early parsing, it's essential to have
numeric->int8 conversion to avoid 'can't convert' errors on undecorated
int8 constants. Threw in the rest for completeness while I was in the
area.
I did not force an initdb for this, since the system will still run
without the new pg_proc/pg_operator entries. Possibly I should've.

and both would insert random junk digits if given an input that was an
exact multiple of 10.

is considerably more robust and accurate than it used to be.
Also, get rid of numeric's private allocation freelist, which is no longer
a win since Jan rewrote palloc.
