Add pg_get_database_ddl() function

Add a new SQL-callable function that returns the DDL statements needed
to recreate a database. It takes a regdatabase argument and an optional
VARIADIC text argument for options that are specified as alternating
name/value pairs. The following options are supported: pretty (boolean)
for formatted output, owner (boolean) to include OWNER and tablespace
(boolean) to include TABLESPACE. The return is one or multiple rows
where the first row is a CREATE DATABASE statement and subsequent rows are
ALTER DATABASE statements to set some database properties.

The caller must have CONNECT privilege on the target database.
