+ * with palloc() (falling back to malloc in frontend code).

+ * StringInfoData holds information about an extensible string.
+ * data is the current buffer for the string (allocated with palloc).
+ * len is the current string length. There is guaranteed to be
+ * a terminating '\0' at data[len], although this is not very
+ * useful when the string holds binary data rather than text.
+ * maxlen is the allocated size in bytes of 'data', i.e. the maximum
+ * string size (including the terminating '\0' char) that we can
+ * currently store in 'data' without having to reallocate
+ * more space. We must always have maxlen > len.
+ * cursor is initialized to zero by makeStringInfo or initStringInfo,
+ * but is not otherwise touched by the stringinfo.c routines.
+ * Some routines use it to scan through a StringInfo.

+ * StringInfoData if it was palloc'd. There's no special support for this.
+ *
+ * NOTE: some routines build up a string using StringInfo, and then
