This is intended as infrastructure to support integration with label-based
mandatory access control systems such as SE-Linux. Further changes (mostly
hooks) will be needed, but this is a big chunk of it.

Command synopses using <cmdsynopsis> with multiple variants previously used
<sbr> to break lines between variants. The new man page toolchain introduced
in 9.0 makes a mess out of that, and that markup was probably wrong all along,
because <sbr> is supposed to break lines within a synopsis, not between them.
So fix that by using multiple <cmdsynopsis> elements inside <refsynopsisdiv>.
backpatched to 9.0
Also, add cross-reference from pg_shadow.passwd to pg_authid.rolpasswd and
fix a bit of markup I muffed in my previous commit.
Per discussion with Josh Kupershmidt.
It isn't, now that we ship the docs as loose files rather than a sub-tarball.
Also adjust the wording in a couple of places to make the lists of required
software read more consistently.
- remove excessive table cells
- moving function parameters into function tags rather than having
them being considered separate
- add return type column on XML2 contrib module functions list and
removing return types from function
- add table header to XML2 contrib parameter table

Backpatch to 9.0.X.
Since the code underlying pg_get_expr() is not secure against malformed
input, and can't practically be made so, we need to prevent miscreants
from feeding arbitrary data to it. We can do this securely by declaring
pg_get_expr() to take a new datatype "pg_node_tree" and declaring the
system catalog columns that hold nodeToString output to be of that type.
There is no way at SQL level to create a non-null value of type pg_node_tree.
Since the backend-internal operations that fill those catalog columns
operate below the SQL level, they are oblivious to the datatype relabeling
and don't need any changes.
which is perhaps not a terribly good spot for it but there doesn't seem to be
a better place. Also add a source-code comment pointing out a couple reasons
for having a separate lock file. Per suggestion from Greg Smith.
While at it, copy-edit the description of prefix-match marker support in
synonym dictionaries, and clarify the description of the default unaccent
dictionary a bit more.
