Ugh, that will make everyone using the cube extension unhappy. After 
this patch, they will have to quote contrib's cube type and functions 
every time.

I think we should bite the bullet and rename the extension, and its 
"cube" type and functions. For an application, having to suddenly quote 
it has the same effect as renaming it; you'll have to find all the 
callers and change them. And in the long-run, it's clearly better to 
have an unambiguous name.
