This provides a convenient way to look up a database's OID. For example, the query SELECT * FROM pg_shdepend WHERE dbid = (SELECT oid FROM pg_database WHERE datname = current_database()); can now be simplified to SELECT * FROM pg_shdepend WHERE dbid = current_database()::regdatabase; Like the regrole type, regdatabase has cluster-wide scope, so we disallow regdatabase constants from appearing in stored expressions. Bumps catversion.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. When building from the source distribution, these modules are not built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected module, do the same in that module's subdirectory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database, you can simply do CREATE EXTENSION module_name; See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
