Repair subtle VACUUM bug that led to 'HEAP_MOVED_IN was not expected'
errors. VACUUM normally compacts the table back-to-front, and stops
as soon as it gets to a page that it has moved some tuples onto.
(This logic doesn't make for a complete packing of the table, but it
should be pretty close.) But the way it was checking whether it had
got to a page with some moved-in tuples was to look at whether the
current page was the same as the last page of the list of pages that
have enough free space to be move-in targets. And there was other
code that would remove pages from that list once they got full.
There was a kluge that prevented the last list entry from being
removed, but it didn't get the job done. Fixed by keeping a separate
variable that contains the largest block number into which a tuple
has been moved. There's no longer any need to protect the last element
of the fraged_pages list.
Also, fix NOTICE messages to describe elapsed user/system CPU time
correctly.

Reverse the order of operations to add months first.
2) tm2timespan() did all intermediate math as integer, converting to double
at the very end. This resulted in hidden overflows when given very large
integer days, hours, etc. For example,
select '74565 days'::timespan;
produced the wrong result. Change code to ensure that doubles are used

The first fix is to allow an input file with a relative path and without
a ".pgc " extension. The second patch fixes a coredump when there is
more than one input file (in that case, cur and types were not set to
NULL before processing the second f ile)
The patch below modifies the accepted grammar of ecpg to accept
FETCH [direction] [amount] cursor name
i.e. the IN|FROM clause becomes optional (as in Oracle and Informix).
This removes the incompatibility mentioned in section "Porting From
Other RDBMS Packages" p169, PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide. The grammar
is modified in such a way as to avoid shift/reduce conflicts. It does
not accept the statement "EXEC SQL FETCH;" anymore, as the old grammar
did (this seems to be a bug of the old grammar anyway).
This patch cleans up the handling of space characters in the scanner;
some patte rns require \n to be in {space}, some do not. A second fix is
the handling of cpp continuati on lines; the old pattern did not match
these. The parser is patched to fix an off-by-one error in the #line
directives. The pa rser is also enhanced to report the correct location
of errors in declarations in the "E XEC SQL DECLARE SECTION". Finally,
some right recursions in the parser were replaced by left-recursions.
This patch adds preprocessor directives to ecpg; in particular
EXEC SQL IFDEF, EXEC SQL IFNDEF, EXEC SQL ELSE, EXEC SQL ELIF and EXEC SQL ENDIF
"EXEC SQL IFDEF" is used with defines made with "EXEC SQL DEFINE" and
defines, specified on the command line with -D. Defines, specified on
the command line are persistent across multiple input files. Defines can
be nested up to a maximum level of 128 (see patch). There is a fair
amount of error checking to make sure directives are matched properly. I
need preprocessor directives for porting code, that is written for an
Informix database, to a PostgreSQL database, while maintaining
compatibility with the original code. I decided not to extend the
already large ecpg grammar. Everything is done in the scanner by adding
some states, e.g. to skip all input except newlines and directives. The
preprocessor commands are compatible with Informix. Oracle uses a cpp
replacement.
