pgsql: Inserting 5 characters into char(10) does not produce 5 padding

Log Message:
-----------
Inserting 5 characters into char(10) does not produce 5 padding spaces
if they are two-byte multibyte characters. Same thing can be happen
if octet_length(multibyte_chars) == n where n is char(n).
Long standing bug since 7.3 days. Per report and fix from Yoshiyuki Asaba.
