Log message:
    Apply (a somewhat revised version of) Greg Mullane's patch to eliminate
    heuristic determination of day vs month in date/time input.  Add the
    ability to specify that input is interpreted as yy-mm-dd order (which
    formerly worked, but only for yy greater than 31).  DateStyle's input
    component now has the preferred spellings DMY, MDY, or YMD; the older
    keywords European and US are now aliases for the first two of these.
    Per recent discussions on pgsql-general.
