OK, if we are going with an unchanged hstore in contrib and a new JSONB,
there is no reason to wack around JSONB to be binary compatible with the
old hstore format.  What sacrifices did we need to make to have JSBONB
be binary compatible with hstore, can those sacrifices be removed, and
can that be done in time for 9.4?
