Robin Thomas f677fadbe6 Provides safe, idempotent shard-extended names to any object name
related to a table that might be distributed, allowing any name
that is within regular PostgreSQL length limits to be extended
with a shard ID for use in shards on workers. Handles multi-byte
character boundaries in identifiers when making prefixes for
shard-extended names. Includes tests.
Uses hash_any from PostgreSQL's access/hashfunc.c.
Removes AppendShardIdToStringInfo() as it's used only once
and arguably is best replaced there with a call to AppendShardIdToName().

Adds UDF shard_name(object_name, shard_id) to expose the shard-extended
name logic to other PL/PGSQL, UDFs and scripts.

Bumps version to 6.0-2 to allow for UDF to be created in migration script.

Fixes citusdata/citus#781 and citusdata/citus#179.
