The oidvectortypes function, mostly used by psql \df, formats types
separated by spaces:

varchar float8 timetz int4

which would look a little odd when canonical type names are used:

character varying double precision time with time zone integer

I suggest that we separate the types by <comma><space>, which also looks a
little more like how they are invoked in a function call.

Concerns?
