Log Message:
-----------
Adjust psql's new \ef command to present an empty CREATE FUNCTION template
for editing if no function name is specified. This seems a much cleaner way
to offer that functionality than the original patch had. In passing,
de-clutter the error displays that are given for a bogus function-name
argument, and standardize on "$function$" as the default delimiter for the
function body. (The original coding would use the shortest possible
dollar-quote delimiter, which seems to create unnecessarily high risk of
later conflicts with the user-modified function body.)
