I've looked into storing charset/collation in the string values. This
means that we change varchar/text/BpChar to be structures that have a
charset oid field and a collation oid field, the rest of the Datum is the
string data.
I think the number of charset/collation combinations will be relatively
few so perhaps it would be space efficient to maintain a table where
each combination is given an oid and have string values store that
rather than two separate oid's?
