I'm concerned about the performance cost of this patch.  Have you done
any measurements about what kind of overhead you are putting on the
inner loop of similar_escape?

At the very least, please don't call GetDatabaseEncoding() over again
every single time through the inner loop.  More generally, why do we
need to use pg_encoding_verifymb?  The input data is presumably validly
encoded.  ISTM the significantly cheaper pg_mblen() would be more
appropriate.

                        regards, tom lane
