seems no changes to the citext extension are required, since the citext data
type does not define specialized substring/substr function.
I don't really see the point of this. These are standardized functions,
and people should be using them in the standardized ways. By adding
parameter names, we are opening up the use of these in nonstandard and
unportable ways. I don't think the arguments of these functions are
terribly confusing that use of named parameters adds much value. At
least I didn't see this argument being made.
Furthermore, if we somehow decided to do this, let's not do it four
functions at a time but have a general plan about whether, why, and how
to add parameter names to built-in/standard functions.
