This gets rid of bsearch() in favor of hashed lookup. The main advantage is that it becomes far cheaper to add new GUCs, since we needn't re-sort the pointer array. Adding N new GUCs had been O(N^2 log N), but now it's closer to O(N). We need to sort only in SHOW ALL and equivalent functions, which are hopefully not performance-critical to anybody. Also, merge GetNumConfigOptions() into get_guc_variables(), because in a world where the set of GUCs isn't fairly static you really want to consider those two results as tied together not independent.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
