In the wake of commit b45242fd3, bytea_sortsupport() still called out
to varstr_sortsupport(). Treating bytea as a kind of text/varchar
required varstr_sortsupport() to allow for the possibility of
NUL bytes, but only for C collation. This was confusing. For
better separation of concerns, create an independent sortsupport
implementation in bytea.c.
The heuristics for bytea_abbrev_abort() remain the same as for
varstr_abbrev_abort(). It's possible that the bytea case warrants
different treatment, but that is left for future investigation.
In passing, adjust some strange looking comparisons in
varstr_abbrev_abort().
