Use improved vsnprintf calling logic in more places.
When we are using a C99-compliant vsnprintf implementation (which should be most places, these days) it is worth the trouble to make use of its report of how large the buffer needs to be to succeed. This patch adjusts stringinfo.c and some miscellaneous usages in pg_dump to do that, relying on the logic recently added in libpgcommon's psprintf.c. Since these places want to know the number of bytes written once we succeed, modify the API of pvsnprintf() to report that. There remains near-duplicate logic in pqexpbuffer.c, but since that code is in libpq, psprintf.c's approach of exit()-on-error isn't appropriate for use there. Also note that I didn't bother touching the multitude of places that call (v)snprintf without any attempt to provide a resizable buffer. Release-note-worthy incompatibility: the API of appendStringInfoVA() changed. If there's any third-party code that's calling that directly, it will need tweaking along the same lines as in this patch. David Rowley and Tom Lane

* appendStringInfoVA

* Attempt to format text data under the control of fmt (an sprintf-style
|

* format string) and append it to whatever is already in str. If successful
|

* return true; if not (because there's not enough space), return false
|

* without modifying str. Typically the caller would enlarge str and retry
|

* on false return --- see appendStringInfo for standard usage pattern.

* return zero; if not (because there's not enough space), return an estimate
|

* of the space needed, without modifying str. Typically the caller should
