interval-rescind-dedup-v1_16.patch

    Dissociate btequalimage() from interval_ops, ending its deduplication.
    
    Under interval_ops, some equal values are distinguishable.  One such
    pair is '24:00:00' and '1 day'.  With that being so, btequalimage()
    breaches the documented contract for the "equalimage" btree support
    function.  This can cause incorrect results from index-only scans.
    Users should REINDEX any indexes having interval-type columns and for
    which "pg_amcheck --heapallindexed" reports an error.  This fix makes
    interval_ops simply omit the support function, like numeric_ops does.
    Back-pack to v13, where btequalimage() first appeared.  In back
    branches, for the benefit of old catalog content, btequalimage() code
    will return false for type "interval".  Going forward, back-branch
    initdb will include the catalog change.
