-----------
Add a feature for automatic initialization and finalization of dynamically
loaded libraries: call functions _PG_init() and _PG_fini() if the library
defines such symbols. Hence we no longer need to specify an initialization
function in preload_libraries: we can assume that the library used the
_PG_init() convention, instead. This removes one source of pilot error
in use of preloaded libraries. Original patch by Ralf Engelschall,
preload_libraries changes by me.

It's there for 8.2, if you have any bug-fix-grade changes that are worth
making. I modified the standard PLs to use this functionality, but I
did not look into contrib ...
