The txid_XXX family of fmgr functions exposes 64 bit transaction IDs to users as int8. Now that we have an SQL type xid8 for FullTransactionId, define a new set of functions including pg_current_xact_id() and pg_current_snapshot() based on that. Keep the old functions around too, for now. It's a bit sneaky to use the same C functions for both, but since the binary representation is identical except for the signedness of the type, and since older functions are the ones using the wrong signedness, and since we'll presumably drop the older ones after a reasonable period of time, it seems reasonable to switch to FullTransactionId internally and share the code for both.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
