Re: WIP: a way forward on bootstrap data

BTW, I experimented with adding blank lines between the hash items in the
.dat files, and that seemed to make a nice improvement in readability,
converting masses of rather gray text into visibly distinct stanzas.
I'm not dead set on that, but try it and see what you think.

A small example from pg_aggregate.dat:

{ aggfnoid => 'avg(int8)', aggtransfn => 'int8_avg_accum',
  aggfinalfn => 'numeric_poly_avg', aggcombinefn => 'int8_avg_combine',
  aggserialfn => 'int8_avg_serialize', aggdeserialfn => 'int8_avg_deserialize',
  aggmtransfn => 'int8_avg_accum', aggminvtransfn => 'int8_avg_accum_inv',
  aggmfinalfn => 'numeric_poly_avg', aggtranstype => 'internal',
  aggtransspace => '48', aggmtranstype => 'internal', aggmtransspace => '48' },
{ aggfnoid => 'avg(int4)', aggtransfn => 'int4_avg_accum',
  aggfinalfn => 'int8_avg', aggcombinefn => 'int4_avg_combine',
  aggmtransfn => 'int4_avg_accum', aggminvtransfn => 'int4_avg_accum_inv',
  aggmfinalfn => 'int8_avg', aggtranstype => '_int8', aggmtranstype => '_int8',
  agginitval => '{0,0}', aggminitval => '{0,0}' },
{ aggfnoid => 'avg(int2)', aggtransfn => 'int2_avg_accum',
  aggfinalfn => 'int8_avg', aggcombinefn => 'int4_avg_combine',
  aggmtransfn => 'int2_avg_accum', aggminvtransfn => 'int2_avg_accum_inv',
  aggmfinalfn => 'int8_avg', aggtranstype => '_int8', aggmtranstype => '_int8',
  agginitval => '{0,0}', aggminitval => '{0,0}' },
{ aggfnoid => 'avg(numeric)', aggtransfn => 'numeric_avg_accum',
  aggfinalfn => 'numeric_avg', aggcombinefn => 'numeric_avg_combine',
  aggserialfn => 'numeric_avg_serialize',
  aggdeserialfn => 'numeric_avg_deserialize',
  aggmtransfn => 'numeric_avg_accum', aggminvtransfn => 'numeric_accum_inv',
  aggmfinalfn => 'numeric_avg', aggtranstype => 'internal',
  aggtransspace => '128', aggmtranstype => 'internal',
  aggmtransspace => '128' },
{ aggfnoid => 'avg(float4)', aggtransfn => 'float4_accum',
  aggfinalfn => 'float8_avg', aggcombinefn => 'float8_combine',
  aggtranstype => '_float8', agginitval => '{0,0,0}' },

versus
