Peter Eisentraut 93a6be63a5 Revise the permission checking on user mapping DDL commands. 
CREATE/ALTER/DROP USER MAPPING are now allowed either by the server owner or
by a user with USAGE privileges for his own user name.  This is more or less
what the SQL standard wants anyway (plus "implementation-defined")

Hide information_schema.user_mapping_options.option_value, unless the current
user is the one associated with the user mapping, or is the server owner and
the mapping is for PUBLIC, or is a superuser.  This is to protect passwords.

Also, fix a bug in information_schema._pg_foreign_servers, which hid servers
using wrappers where the current user did not have privileges on the wrapper.
The correct behavior is to hide servers where the current user has no
privileges on the server.

Linking within SGML documents can be confusing, so here is a summary:


Intra-document Linking
----------------------

<xref>
	use to get link text from the title of the target link; has no
	close tag
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/xref.html

<link>
	use to supply text for the link, requires </link>
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/link.html

linkend=
	controls the target of the link/xref, required

endterm=
	for <xref>, allows the text of the link/xref to be taken from a
	different link target title


External Linking
----------------

<ulink>
	like <link>, but uses a URL (not a document target);  requires
	</ulink>; if no text is specified, the URL appears as the link text
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/ulink.html

url=
	used by <ulink> to specify the URL, required


Guidelines
----------

o  If you want to supply text, use <link>, else <xref>
o  Do not use text with <ulink> so the URL appears in printed output
o  You can supply text at the target location with 'xreflabel'
