Here is a new version of the three \x hex support patches. I have added
\x for psql variables, which is the last patch.
I have IM'ed with Peter and he is now OK with the idea of supporting \x,
with the underestanding that it doesn't take us any farther away from
compatibility than we are now.
I have already fixed the psql octal/decimal/hex behavior in another
patch.
