Log Message: ----------- Adjust string comparison so that only bitwise-equal strings are considered equal: if strcoll claims two strings are equal, check it with strcmp, and sort according to strcmp if not identical. This fixes inconsistent behavior under glibc's hu_HU locale, and probably under some other locales as well. Also, take advantage of the now-well-defined behavior to speed up texteq, textne, bpchareq, bpcharne: they may as well just do a bitwise comparison and not bother with strcoll at all.
NOTE: affected databases may need to REINDEX indexes on text columns to be sure they are self-consistent.
