Tom Lane f0811a74b3 Merge the last few variable.c configuration variables into the generic
GUC support.  It's now possible to set datestyle, timezone, and
client_encoding from postgresql.conf and per-database or per-user
settings.  Also, implement rollback of SET commands that occur in a
transaction that later fails.  Create a SET LOCAL var = value syntax
that sets the variable only for the duration of the current transaction.
All per previous discussions in pghackers.

</synopsis>
The default value is defined as the value that the variable would
have had, had no <command>SET</> ever been issued for it in the
current session. The actual source of this value might be a
compiled-in default, the postmaster's configuration file or command-line
switches, or per-database or per-user default settings. See the
<citetitle>Administrator's Guide</citetitle> for details.
