+ refactor things a bit so that send & recv functions use the same
context struct, because the way they're setup is pretty much the same
for both. This also adds recursive type resolution for bind parameters.
These macros don't assume alignment and may be somewhat inefficient with
all that copying. I'm hoping GCC is able to optimize that crap somewhat.
Also the pg type receive functions can not, in fact, assume that their
input buffers are properly aligned. That won't necessarily be the case
for array elements.
NOW we're really getting to the part where this module is more awesome
than DBD::Pg.
(When I started working on this module I was expecting that the Postgres
binary protocol would send jsonb in a binary format as well and that I'd
be duplicating parts of the JSON parser/formatter to make that work, but
it turns out that Postgres just uses plain json for exchange. Saves me
some trouble, I guess)
I liked the Perl implementation of transactions, but managing state
between Perl and C is a bit cumbersome, so I've moved the whole thing
into C.
Also added a few statement configuration methods that currently don't do
anything yet.
Partly because some errors currently appeared to come from within FU::PG
itself, which is useless, and partly because it's common to wrap
database access methods, while that's exactly the kind of operation
where you *really* want to know where the error originated from.
(Source: too much time wasted debugging VNDB errors)
Was expecting the implementation of this to get overly complicated and
brittle, but using a counter-based cookie and doing parts of it in Perl
made it pretty easy actually. Pretty happy with how this turned out so
far.
