/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * rangetypes.c
 *    I/O functions, operators, and support functions for range types.
 *
 * The stored (serialized) format of a range value is:
 *
 *  4 bytes: varlena header
 *  4 bytes: range type's OID
 *  Lower boundary value, if any, aligned according to subtype's typalign
 *  Upper boundary value, if any, aligned according to subtype's typalign
 *  1 byte for flags
 *
 * This representation is chosen to avoid needing any padding before the
 * lower boundary value, even when it requires double alignment.  We can
 * expect that the varlena header is presented to us on a suitably aligned
 * boundary (possibly after detoasting), and then the lower boundary is too.
 * Note that this means we can't work with a packed (short varlena header)
 * value; we must detoast it first.
