Updated patch.

Changes:
  * Addressed Erik's review comments.
  * Fixed issue with "range @> elem" found by Erik.
  * Merged with latest HEAD
  * Changed representation to be more efficient and more robust
    (could use some testing though, because I just did this tonight)

TODO:
  * send/recv -- just noticed this tonight, no reason not to do it

Open Items:
  * Maybe typmod
  * grammar -- ask for btree opclass, or compare function?
  * catalog -- store btree opclass, or compare function?
  * should non-superusers be able to create range types?
  * constructor issues I just posted about
  * SQL length function --immutable/stable/volatile?

As always, my repo is here:
