here is a patch implementing varwidth_bucket (naming is up for discussion)
function which does binning with variable bucket width. The use-cases are
same as for width_bucket (=data analytics, mainly histograms), the
difference is that width_bucket uses buckets of same width but the
varwidth_bucket accepts an sorted array of right-bound thresholds to define
the individual buckets.
I wonder if stuff like this shouldn't live in contrib rather than
core, but I guess it's probably not worth it for 3 functions.
I was wondering the same and I also think that 3 simple functions is not
that much, plus it seems natural extension of the existing width_bucket.
