descriptions on operators

I know we left this issue open, but I came to the conclusion that it would
be wiser to keep it like it used to be in that operator comments should be
indexed on the underlying functions. The reason is simply that there is a
a one-to-one relationship between operators and their function, so we'd
end up writing everything double with little purpose. That would mean
you'd have to tweak your code a little.

If that's the way you want it, so it shall be. I have to write up
a diff for pg_dump this weekend anyways to generate the
appropriate COMMENT ON statements for version 7.0.
