Currently the PL/Python documentation claims that:
"raise plpy.ERROR(msg) and raise plpy.FATAL(msg) are equivalent to
calling plpy.error and plpy.fatal, respectively"

However, the actual names are Error and Fatal, not ERROR or FATAL
(Python is case-sensitive). Patch to fix documentation attached.

postgres=# CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.foo() RETURNS void
LANGUAGE plpythonu AS 'raise plpy.ERROR("foobar happened!")';
CREATE FUNCTION
postgres=# select foo();
ERROR: PL/Python: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ERROR'
CONTEXT: PL/Python function "foo"

postgres=# CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.foo() RETURNS void
LANGUAGE plpythonu AS 'raise plpy.Error("foobar happened!")';
CREATE FUNCTION
postgres=# select foo();
ERROR: PL/Python: plpy.Error: foobar happened!
CONTEXT: PL/Python function "foo"

Regards,
Marti
