The hstore send/recv functions have basically the same
(copy/pasted/name adjusted) implementation. Since hstore will
presumably remain (as the current hstore is) 'deep binary' and all of
Andres's gripes apply to the hstore as well, this change buys us
precisely zap from a time perspective; it comes down to which is
intrinsically the better choice.
