* Fix help text ordering

* Add back --set-session-authorization to pg_dumpall.  Updated the docs
for that.  Updated help for that.

* Dump ALTER USER commands for the cluster owner ("pgsql").  These are
dumped AFTER the create user and create database commands in case the
permissions to do these have been revoked.

* Dump ALTER OWNER for public schema (because it's possible to change
it).  This was done by adding TOC entries for the public schema, and
filtering them out at archiver time.  I also save the owner in the TOC
entry just for the public schema.

* Suppress dumping single quotes around schema_path and DateStyle
options when they are set using ALTER USER or ALTER DATABASE.  Added a
comment to the steps in guc.c to remind people to update that list.

* Fix dumping in --clean mode against a pre-7.3 server.  It just sets
all drop statements to assume the public schema, allowing it to restore
without error.

* Cleaned up text output.  eg. Don't output -- Tablespaces comment if
there are none.  Same for groups and users.

* Make the commands to DELETE FROM pg_shadow and DELETE FROM pg_group
only be output when -c mode is enabled.  I'm not sure why that hasn't
been done before?!?!

Move TablespaceCreateDbspace() call into smgrcreate(), which is where it
probably should have been to begin with; this is to cover cases like
needing to recreate the per-db directory during WAL replay.
Also, fix heap_create to force pg_class.reltablespace to be zero instead
of the database's default tablespace; this makes the world safe for
CREATE DATABASE to handle all tables in the default tablespace alike,
as per previous discussion.  And force pg_class.reltablespace to zero
when creating a relation without physical storage (eg, a view); this
avoids possibly having dangling references in this column after a
subsequent DROP TABLESPACE.

Rename XLOG_BTREE_NEWPAGE xlog record type into XLOG_HEAP_NEWPAGE, and

use this same record type for both heaps and indexes.

Theoretically I should have forced initdb for this, but in practice there

Cause the format of BC timestamptz output to be 'datetime zone BC' rather
than 'datetime BC zone', because the former is accepted by the timestamptz
