List of updates:
- The patches are rebased to the latest CVS HEAD, which includes
  generic reloptions framework by Alvaro Herrera.
- Row-level ACL's reloptions ("row_level_acl" and "default_row_acl")
  are reworked based on the new framework.


Alvaro, could you check the patched code on reloptions.h, reloptions.c
and rel.h? It is a working example of string reloptions, and I could
found a few strange codes.

1. HANDLE_STRING_RELOPTION() always put an empty string when
   optstring->default_isnull is true, even if user gives a
   valid string reloption.
2. HANDLE_STRING_RELOPTION() cannot handle an offset style.
   The patched one enables to put reloption string on the
   tail of StdRdOptions structure, and adjust offset value.
3. Why the "StdRdOptions lopts;" is necessary?
   A string reloption need to put it on the tail of StdRdOptions
   and member of the structure indicates its offset, so it should
   be allocated with variable length at the begining.
   The patched one invokes palloc0() with sizeof(StdRdOptions)
   and length of string at first.

And, I have a request.
4. Is it possible to support a call-back to validate a given
   string reloption? I want to check whether the given default
   Row-level ACLs has a valid format, or not.
