OK, fine, but when I do the full source tree pgindent, I will need a URL
to get the list, so let's document its location in the README.

Also, this improved typedef list is only making pgindent 0.2% better. 
Does someone want to look at improving the pgindent script itself? Might
be a good time now that we have an updated typedef list for 8.4.
