Thread: pgsql: Remove old RULE privilege completely.
Remove old RULE privilege completely. The RULE privilege for tables was removed in v8.2, but for backward compatibility, GRANT/REVOKE and privilege functions like has_table_privilege continued to accept the RULE keyword without any effect. After discussions on pgsql-hackers, it was agreed that this compatibility is no longer needed. Since it's been long enough since the deprecation, we've decided to fully remove support for RULE privilege, so GRANT/REVOKE and privilege functions will no longer accept it.
