Attached are patches for (a) and (b) after another round of review and
fixes by Vignesh. I am planning to commit the first one (a) tomorrow
morning and then if everything is fine on buildfarm, I will commit the
second one (b) and once both are good, I will look into the third one
(c). Another pair of eyes on these patches would be good.

Just to be clear, the basic rule we follow here is to always first
include 'postgres.h' or 'postgres_fe.h' whichever is applicable, then
system header includes and then Postgres header includes. In this, we
also follow that all the Postgres header includes are in order based
on their ASCII value. We generally follow these rules, but the code
has deviated in many places. These commits make these rules
consistent for the entire code.
