> Here is a v13. No code changes, but TAP tests added to maintain pgbench
> coverage to green.

>
> Summary of patch contents:
>
> This patch extends pgbench expressions syntax while keeping compatibility
> with SQL expressions.
>
> It adds support for NULL and BOOLEAN, as well as assorted logical,
> comparison and test operators (AND, <>, <=, IS NULL...).
>
> A CASE construct is provided which takes advantage of the added BOOLEAN.
>
> Integer and double functions and operators are also extended: bitwise
> operators (<< & ...), exp/ln, mod() as synonymous to % (matching pg).
>
> Added TAP tests maintain pgbench source coverage to green (if you ignore
> lexer & parser generated files...).
>
>
> Future plans include extending and synchronizing psql & pgbench variable
> and expression syntaxes:
>  - move expression parsing and evaluation in fe_utils,
>    which would allow to
>  - extend psql with some \let i <expression> cliend-side syntax
>    (ISTM that extending the \set syntax cannot be upward compatible)
>    and probably handle \let as a synonymous to \set in pgbench.
>  - allow \if <expression> in psql instead of just \if <boolean>
>  - add \if ... support to pgbench
>  - maybe add TEXT type support to the expression engine, if useful
>  - maybe add :'var" and :"var" support to pgbench, if useful
>
> There are already patches in the queue for:
>  - testing whether a variable is defined in psql
>    feature could eventually be added to pgbench as well
>  - adding \gset (& \cset) to pgbench to get output of possibly
>    combined queries into variables, which can be used for making
>    decisions later in the script.
