A patch that adds primary key and unique key support to psql's \d

Patch applied.

Christopher, can you post a sample of the new output. Also, does this
affect the psql docs at all?

Thanks.

[ Charset ISO-8859-1 unsupported, converting... ]

This just breaks down the indices in to three groups:

non-unique: stay as they were
unique and primary: become listed as primary keys
unique and non-primary: become listed as unique keys

I also made it so that it shows the names of check constraints ie:

Check: "$1" (a > 5)

Sample output that appears below the table attributes for \d:

Indicies: palm_buy_date_idx
palm_user_date_idx
Primary Key: palm_buyers_pkey
Unique Key: palm_buyers_username
Constraint: "$1" ((sex = 'M'::bpchar) OR (sex = 'F'::bpchar))

Note that check constraint name now shown as well. (Makes it a lot easier
to test inheritance support in ADD/DROP constraint :) )

Attached is a docs change for psql.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
