Add equalimage B-Tree support functions.

Browse Source 
Invent the concept of a B-Tree equalimage ("equality implies image
equality") support function, registered as support function 4.  This
indicates whether it is safe (or not safe) to apply optimizations that
assume that any two datums considered equal by an operator class's order
method must be interchangeable without any loss of semantic information.
This is static information about an operator class and a collation.

Register an equalimage routine for almost all of the existing B-Tree
opclasses.  We only need two trivial routines for all of the opclasses
that are included with the core distribution.  There is one routine for
opclasses that index non-collatable types (which returns 'true'
unconditionally), plus another routine for collatable types (which
returns 'true' when the collation is a deterministic collation).

This patch is infrastructure for an upcoming patch that adds B-Tree
deduplication.
