Add User's Guide chapters on Data Definition and Data Manipulation.
...
Still needs to be filled with more information, but it gives us a
framework to have a User's Guide with complete coverage of the basic
SQL operations. Move arrays into data type chapter, inheritance into
DDL chapter (for now).
Make <comment>s show up in the output while the version number ends in
"devel".
Allow cross-book references with entities &cite-user; etc.

Fix array_out's failure to backslash backslashes, per bug# 524. Also,
...
remove brain-dead rule that double quotes are needed if and only if the
datatype is pass-by-reference; neither direction of the implication holds

any characters that force us to quote it.
Add some documentation about quoting of array values, which was previously
explained nowhere AFAICT.
