elog(NOIND)?

Does anyone want to keep elog(NOIND)? It's not used anywhere, and I think
the notion of indentation levels, while kind of obsolete with syslog
anyway, should not be part of the elog API.

Nuke it.

While you're at it, rearrange the numeric order of the elog levels to be
sensible. There are some bizarrely-coded tests in elog.c that could be
simplified if severity levels had the obvious ordering.

Okay, but I'm not sure there will be a total ordering forever. For
example, it's pretty useless to log user-level errors like "syntax error"
to the server log by default. There needs to be more flexibility.

Does anyone foresee a problem with making them an enum?
