Rearrange pseudotypes.c to get rid of duplicative code.
Commit a5954de10 replaced a lot of manually-coded stub I/O routines
with code generated by macros. That was a good idea but it didn't
go far enough, because there were still manually-coded stub input
routines for types that had live output routines. Refactor the
macro so that we can generate just a stub input routine at need.
Also create similar macros to generate stub binary I/O routines,
since we have some of those now. The only stub functions that remain
hand-coded are shell_in() and shell_out(), which need to be separate
because they use different error messages.
While here, rearrange the commentary to discuss each type not each
function. This provides a better way to explain the *why* of which
types need which support, rather than just duplicatively annotating
the functions.
