Subject: [PATCH v5 5/6] Handle pg_get_expr default args in system_functions.sql

From: Mark Wong <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2025 11:17:56 -0800

Modernize pg_get_expr to use proargdefaults to handle the optional
pretty argument.  That also means any direct function calls now needs to
set the pretty parameter.
