Here is another updated patch. Some preliminary work was committed,
which allowed this patch to get a bit smaller. I have incorporated some
recent reviews, and also fixed some issues pointed out by recent CI
additions (address sanitizer etc.).
The psql situation in this patch is temporary: It still has the \gencr
command from previous versions, but I plan to fold this into the new
\bind command.
