Improve parsetree representation of special functions such as CURRENT_DATE.

Browse Source 
We implement a dozen or so parameterless functions that the SQL standard
defines special syntax for.  Up to now, that was done by converting them
into more or less ad-hoc constructs such as "'now'::text::date".  That's
messy for multiple reasons: it exposes what should be implementation
details to users, and performance is worse than it needs to be in several
cases.  To improve matters, invent a new expression node type
SQLValueFunction that can represent any of these parameterless functions.

Bump catversion because this changes stored parsetrees for rules.
