WIP: script binaries renaming

That's really not the test we apply. We are in feature freeze, which
means the only things not on the queue that should get in are bug fixes.
If we don't stick to that we'll never get a release out.

This missed the feature freeze deadline by well over two months.
It is not a candidate for 8.3.

This has been saved for the 8.4 release:

I attach patch which renames following binaries

createdb createlang createuser dropdb droplang dropuser clusterdb
vacuumdb reindexdb

to

pg_createdb pg_createlang pg_createuser pg_dropdb pg_droplang
pg_dropuser pg_clusterdb pg_vacuumdb pg_reindexdb

Symlinks (or copy on win32) are created for backward compatibility.

This renaming was discussed there:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-06/msg00145.php

I'm not yet implemented WARNING message when non pg_* command is used.
and I'm going to modify documentation. Is there any other place then

I think this patch has no (or small) impact on functionality and it
should be committed to 8.3
