Patch for JDBC to update some comments

Your patch has been added to the PostgreSQL unapplied patches list at:

http://candle.pha.pa.us/cgi-bin/pgpatches

I will try to apply it within the next 48 hours.

This patch updates some comments in the DatabaseMetaData classes to
reflect a mail thread that discussed our conformance (or lack thereof)
to the SQL92 spec.

thanks,
