Hi hackers.
While working on jsonbstatistics, I found the following bug:
an empty jsonb array is considered to be lesser than any scalar,
but it is expected that objects > arrays > scalars.
# select '[]'::jsonb < 'null'::jsonb;
  ?column?
----------
  t
(1 row)
Attached patch contains:
  1. bug fix (added the missing "else" in compareJsonbContainers())
  2. regression test
  3. pg_upgrade: invalidation of btree indexes on jsonb columns and 
REINDEX-script generation
