pgsql: Add quote_literal(anyelement) to preserve (and, in fact, extend)

From
tgl@postgresql.org (Tom Lane)

Log Message:
-----------
Add quote_literal(anyelement) to preserve (and, in fact, extend) a
useful consequence of the former liberal implicit casting to text;
namely that you can feed non-string values to quote_literal() and get
unsurprising results.  Per discussion.
