 *	  POSTGRES Datum (abstract data type) manipulation routines.
 *
 * These routines are driven by the 'typbyval' and 'typlen' information,
 * which must previously have been obtained by the caller for the datatype
 * of the Datum.  (We do it this way because in most situations the caller
 * can look up the info just once and use it for many per-datum operations.)
