led me down not one but two rabbit holes; first I realized that
"functions" is an insufficient term since procedures should also be
included but weren't, so I had to add the more generic term "routine"
and then modify the definitions of all routine types to mix in well.  I
think overall the quality of these definitions is improved as a result.

I also felt the need to revise the definition of "relations", so I did
that too; this made me change the definition of resultset too.

To forestall these ordering issues (look, another rabbit hole), I
grepped the file for all glossterms and sorted that under en_US rules,
then reordered the terms to match that.  Turns out there were several
other ordering mistakes.

git grep '<glossterm>'  | sed -e 's/<[^>]*>\([^<]*\)<[^>]*>/\1/' > orig
LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8 sort orig > sorted

(Eliminating the tags is important, otherwise the sort uses the tags
themselves to disambiguate)

Yes, an oversight, thanks.

I also added TPS, because I had already written it.
