Reverted. Rebasing notes: 1. Commit b4c9695e moved toast table declarations so I adapted to the new scheme, but commit 0cc99327 had taken the OIDs that pg_collation was previously using, so I had to pick some new ones from the temporary range for later reassignment. 2. It took me quite a while to figure out that the collversion column now needs BKI_DEFAULT(_null_), or the perl script wouldn't accept the contents of pg_collation.dat. 3. In a separate commit, I rescued a few sentences of text from the documentation about libc collation versions and reinstated them in the most obvious place, because although the per-index tracking has been reverted, the per-collation version tracking (limited as it is) is now back and works on more OSes than before.
