Conway (BuildTupleFromCStrings sets NULL for pass-by-value types when
intended value is 0). It also implements some other improvements
suggested by Neil.

conversion procs and conversions are added in initdb. Currently
supported conversions are:
UTF-8(UNICODE) <--> SQL_ASCII, ISO-8859-1 to 16, EUC_JP, EUC_KR,
EUC_CN, EUC_TW, SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, UHC,
JOHAB, TCVN
EUC_JP <--> SJIS
EUC_TW <--> BIG5
MULE_INTERNAL <--> EUC_JP, SJIS, EUC_TW, BIG5
Note that initial contents of pg_conversion system catalog are created
in the initdb process. So doing initdb required is ideal, it's
possible to add them to your databases by hand, however. To accomplish
this:
psql -f your_postgresql_install_path/share/conversion_create.sql your_database
So I did not bump up the version in cataversion.h.
TODO:
Add more conversion procs
Add [CASCADE|RESTRICT] to DROP CONVERSION
Add tuples to pg_depend
Add regression tests
Write docs
Add SQL99 CONVERT command?

to build dependencies for rules, constraint expressions, and default
expressions. Repair some problems in the original design of
recursiveDeletion() exposed by more complex dependency sets. Fix
regression tests that were deleting things in illegal sequences.
pg_relcheck is gone; CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, and FOREIGN KEY
constraints all have real live entries in pg_constraint. pg_depend
exists, and RESTRICT/CASCADE options work on most kinds of DROP;
however, pg_depend is not yet very well populated with dependencies.
(Most of the ones that are present at this point just replace formerly
hardwired associations, such as the implicit drop of a relation's pg_type
entry when the relation is dropped.) Need to add more logic to create
dependency entries, improve pg_dump to dump constraints in place of
indexes and triggers, and add some regression tests.
This is the first cut toward CREATE CONVERSION/DROP CONVERSION implementaion.
The commands can now add/remove tuples to the new pg_conversion system
catalog, but that's all. Still need work to make them actually working.
Documentations, regression tests also need work.
are managed as per request.
Moved from merging with table attributes to applying themselves during
coerce_type() and coerce_type_typmod.
Regression tests altered to test the cast() scenarios.
