The algorithm to squash lists of constants added by commit 62d712ecfd94 was a bit too simplistic; we wanted to avoid adding unnecessary complexity, but cases like direct function calls of typecasting functions (and others) were missed, and bogus SQL syntax was being shown in pg_stat_statements normalized query text field. To fix normalization for those cases, we need the parser to transmit information about were each list of constant values starts and ends, so add that to a couple of nodes. Also add a few more test cases to make sure we're doing the right thing. The patch initially submitted by Sami added a new private struct in gram.y to carry the start/end information for A_Expr, but I (Álvaro) decided that a better fix was to remove the parser indirection via the in_expr production, and instead create separate components in the a_expr rule. I'm surprised that this works and doesn't require more changes, but I assume (without checking) that the grammar used to be more complex and got simplified at some point. Bump catversion.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
