a79b498533 Remove Set self support from pgtype
Set having the capability to assign an object of the same type was
inconsistently implemented. Some places it was not implemented at all, some
places it was a shallow copy, some places a deep copy. Given that it doesn't
seem likely to ever be used, and if it is needed it is easy enough to do
outside of the library this code has been removed.

e654d1f0fc pgtype.Encode(Binary|Text) do not write length
To aid in composability, these methods no longer write their own length. This
is especially useful for text formatted arrays and may be useful for future
database/sql compatibility. It also makes the code a little simpler as the
types no longer have to compute their own size.

Along with this, these methods cannot encode NULL. They now return a boolean
if they are NULL. This also benefits text array encoding as numeric arrays
require NULL to be exactly `NULL` while string arrays require NULL to be
`"NULL"`.
