Subject: Beginner hacker item: Fix to_reg*() input type

All the to_reg* functions in src/backend/utils/adt/regproc.c currently 
accept a cstring. Per [1], they should accept text. This should be a 
fairly simple change to make:

- Modify the functions in regproc.c. Take a look at how other text input 
functions work to see what needs to happen here (you'll want to use 
text_to_cstring() as part of that.)

- Modify the appropriate entries in src/include/catalog/pg_proc.h

Note that I mistakenly referred to reg*in functions in that email; it's 
the to_reg* functions that need to change.
