Subscripting implementation for jsonb. It does not support slices, does
not have a limit for number of subscripts and for assignment expects a
replace value to be of jsonb type. There is also one functional
difference in assignment via subscripting from jsonb_set, when an
original jsonb container is NULL, subscripting replaces it with an empty
jsonb and proceed with assignment.

For the sake of code reuse, some parts of jsonb functionality were
rearranged to allow use the same functions for jsonb_set and assign
subscripting operation.

The original idea belongs to Oleg Bartunov.

+  <para>
+   <type>jsonb</type> data type supports array-style subscripting expressions
+   to extract or update particular elements. It's possible to use multiple
+   subscripting expressions to extract nested values. In this case, a chain of
+   subscripting expressions follows the same rules as the
+   <literal>path</literal> argument in <literal>jsonb_set</literal> function,
+   e.g. in case of arrays it is a 0-based operation or that negative integers
+   that appear in <literal>path</literal> count from the end of JSON arrays.
+   The result of subscripting expressions is always jsonb data type. An
+   example of subscripting syntax:
+<programlisting>
+-- Extract value by key
+SELECT ('{"a": 1}'::jsonb)['a'];
+
+-- Extract nested value by key path
+SELECT ('{"a": {"b": {"c": 1}}}'::jsonb)['a']['b']['c'];
+
+-- Extract element by index
+SELECT ('[1, "2", null]'::jsonb)[1];
+
+-- Update value by key, note the single quotes - the assigned value
+-- needs to be of jsonb type as well
+UPDATE table_name SET jsonb_field['key'] = '1';
+
+-- Select records using where clause with subscripting. Since the result of
+-- subscripting is jsonb and we basically want to compare two jsonb objects, we
+-- need to put the value in double quotes to be able to convert it to jsonb.
+SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE jsonb_field['key'] = '"value"';
+</programlisting>
+
+  Subscripting for <type>jsonb</type> does not support slice expressions,
+  even if it contains an array.
+
+  In case if source <type>jsonb</type> is <literal>NULL</literal>, assignment
+  via subscripting will proceed as if it was an empty JSON object:
+<programlisting>
+-- If jsonb_field here is NULL, the result is {"a": 1}
+UPDATE table_name SET jsonb_field['a'] = '1';
+
+-- If jsonb_field here is NULL, the result is [1]
+UPDATE table_name SET jsonb_field[0] = '1';
+</programlisting>

I expanded this patch a bit with fixes proposed by Man Zeng and Noriyoshi
Shinoda. Besides these changes, I noticed that

* default value in uppercase: since we changed the vartype from enum to string
  and enum maps DEBUG1 to "debug1" (see server_message_level_options), it
  should use the lowercase string to keep the same output as previous versions.
  There is no bug here. It is just a matter of keeping the same output.
* use single quote: since we changed the vartype from enum to string, we should
  add single quotes. If you don't add single quotes, it works (for a single
  default log level) -- as exercised in the tests. However, as soon as the user
  adds an extra element it fails. This avoids confusion.

Subject: [PATCH] Minor cleanups in log_min_messages

Fix some issues in commit 38e0190ced7. Remove an unused variable. Use
"default log level" consistently. Keep the process types in alphabetical
order.  Since log_min_messages type was changed from enum to string, it
is a good idea to use single quotes. Although it works for a single
default log level, it will fail as soon as the user tries to add an
extra element to the value. Using single quotes minimizes the chance of
confusion. Use lowercase string for the default value to keep the same
output as previous versions.
