    src/bin/initdb : initdb.sh

Log message:
    Change SQL commands embedded in the initdb script from the style
    echo "command" | postgres
    to the style
    postgres <<EOF
    command
    EOF
    This makes the script more legible (IMHO anyway) by reducing the need
    to escape quotes, and allows us to execute successive SQL commands in
    a single standalone-backend run, rather than needing to start a new
    standalone backend for each command.  With all the CREATE VIEWs that
    are getting done now, this makes for a rather substantial reduction
    in the runtime of initdb.  (Some of us do initdb often enough to care
    how long it runs ;-).)
