[DOCS] Texinfo docs/target

[Andreas Seltenreich]

I've been using a texinfo (more precisely: info) version of the docs
for some weeks now, and really came to love it. It is still the
version I mentioned here:


Now I'm wondering, if it'd be worth fixing the index and some minor
encoding deficiencies (e.g. medium-length dashes end up as "[mdash]"),
and adding Autoconf support in order to make it a proper target.

I remember other requests for info-docs on the lists than the above,
but it is rather hard to search for them :-/.

regards,
Andreas

We probably won't ship it with the default distribution, but I don't see 
any harm in at least providing build support for it initially.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
   choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
   match
