I realize the last part about optional quoting is unnecessary, since if quoting is desired, users could just use the 'csv' format.
Revised draft of the idea (not yet implemented):
- Fast path for newline-free types: For the list of built-in types where we know the ::text representation cannot contain newlines, we take the fast path in NextCopyFromRawFields(), pointing cstate->raw_fields[0] directly to cstate->line_buf.data.
- Handling newlines for other types: For any other types, we would need to scan the string for newline characters. If a newline is encountered, it results in an error.
