This tries to bring a bit more consistency to the use of the <productname> tag in the documents. This fixes a couple of mistakes with our own product. We definitely should be consistently calling that PostgreSQL when we're referring to the modern-day version of the software. This also tidies up a couple of inconsistencies with the case of other product names, namely Emacs and Python. We also get rid of some incorrect usages of <productname> and replace them with <literal>. Many of these mistakes exist in the back branches, but they don't quite seem critical enough to warrant fixing them in prior versions at this stage.
