be2b660ecd This patch includes a lot of minor cleanups to the SGML documentation,
including:

- replacing all the appropriate usages of <citetitle>PostgreSQL
...</citetitle> with &cite-user;, &cite-admin;, and so on

- fix an omission in the EXECUTE documentation

- add some more text to the EXPLAIN documentation

- improve the PL/PgSQL RETURN NEXT documentation (more work to do here)

- minor markup fixes

210a039d4f Since ANY is a reserved word, better suggest that ANY be quoted when
used for the input type of an aggregate.

c05f29e895 Augment the date/time examples in the User's Guide to reflect the newer
capabilities of specifying time zones as intervals per SQL9x.
Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag.
 Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which
 (at least) messes up the ToC layout.
Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates
 are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.

902a6a0a4b Restructure representation of aggregate functions so that they have pg_proc
entries, per pghackers discussion.  This fixes aggregates to live in
namespaces, and also simplifies/speeds up lookup in parse_func.c.
Also, add a 'proimplicit' flag to pg_proc that controls whether a type
coercion function may be invoked implicitly, or only explicitly.  The
current settings of these flags are more permissive than I would like,
but we will need to debate and refine the behavior; for now, I avoided
breaking regression tests as much as I could.

03a321d214 Use PostgreSQL consistantly throughout docs. Before, usage was split evenly
between Postgres and PostgreSQL.

bec98a31c5 Revise aggregate functions per earlier discussions in pghackers.
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...

a4ac2f458e Fix markup for docbook2man man page generation.
No big deal; fixed lots of other markup at the same time.
Bigest change: make sure there is no whitespace
 in front of <term> contents.
This will probably help the other output types too.

6866cbc7c7 Very minor formatting fixup in the refentry id field to remove
the trailing "-1". This makes a cleaner html output file name.
Clean up a few refpurpose fields.
