I just noticed a couple of macros defined in src/include/tsearch/ts_utils.h:

#define TextPGetCString(t)
DatumGetCString(DirectFunctionCall1(textout, PointerGetDatum(t)))
#define CStringGetTextP(c) DatumGetTextP(DirectFunctionCall1(textin,
CStringGetDatum(c)))

Seems these would actually be convenient in quite a lot of places in
the backend.  Is there any downside to moving these two into
src/include/postgres.h?
