This is still using the 2.0 version of pg_bsd_indent.
I thought it would be good to commit this separately,
so as to document the differences between 2.0 and 2.1 behavior.

As things stood, buildfarm member dory failed. MSVC versions lacking
stdint.h are unusable for building PostgreSQL, but pg_config.h.win32
doesn't know that. Even so, we support other systems lacking stdint.h,
including buildfarm member gaur. Per a suggestion from Tom Lane.

Upstream fixed bugs over the years, but none are confirmed to have
affected pgcrypto. We're better off naively tracking upstream than
reactively maintaining a twelve-year-old snapshot of upstream. Add a
header comment describing the synchronization procedure. Discard use of
INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT(); the domain of the comparisons in question is
{-1,0,1}, controlled entirely by code in imath.c.
Andrew Gierth reviewed the Makefile change. Tom Lane reviewed the
synchronization procedure description.

Historically we forbade datatype-specific comparison functions from
returning INT_MIN, so that it would be safe to invert the sort order
just by negating the comparison result. However, this was never
really safe for comparison functions that directly return the result
of memcmp(), strcmp(), etc, as POSIX doesn't place any such restriction
on those library functions. Buildfarm results show that at least on
recent Linux on s390x, memcmp() actually does return INT_MIN sometimes,
causing sort failures.
The agreed-on answer is to remove this restriction and fix relevant
call sites to not make such an assumption; code such as "res = -res"
should be replaced by "INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT(res)". The same is needed
in a few places that just directly negated the result of memcmp or
strcmp.
To help find places having this problem, I've also added a compile option
to nbtcompare.c that causes some of the commonly used comparators to
return INT_MIN/INT_MAX instead of their usual -1/+1. It'd likely be
a good idea to have at least one buildfarm member running with
"-DSTRESS_SORT_INT_MIN". That's far from a complete test of course,
but it should help to prevent fresh introductions of such bugs.
This is a longstanding portability hazard, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:
* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
than the expected column 33.
On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.
There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

This covers alterations to buffer sizing and zeroing made between imath
1.3 and imath 1.20. Valgrind Memcheck identified the buffer overruns
and reliance on uninitialized data; their exploit potential is unknown.
Builds specifying --with-openssl are unaffected, because they use the
OpenSSL BIGNUM facility instead of imath. Back-patch to 9.0 (all
supported versions).
Security: CVE-2015-0243
return true for exactly the characters treated as whitespace by their flex
scanners. Per report from Victor Snezhko and subsequent investigation.
Also fix a passel of unsafe usages of <ctype.h> functions, that is, ye olde
char-vs-unsigned-char issue. I won't miss <ctype.h> when we are finally
able to stop using it.
Few cleanups and couple of new things:
- add SHA2 algorithm to older OpenSSL
- add BIGNUM math to have public-key cryptography work on non-OpenSSL
build.
- gen_random_bytes() function
The status of SHA2 algoritms and public-key encryption can now be
changed to 'always available.'
That makes pgcrypto functionally complete and unless there will be new
editions of AES, SHA2 or OpenPGP standards, there is no major changes
planned.
