Tom Lane 4907ba304c Doc: simplify the tutorial's window-function examples.
For the purposes of this discussion, row_number() is just as good
as rank(), and its behavior is easier to understand and describe.
So let's switch the examples to using row_number().

Along the way to checking the results given in the tutorial,
I found it helpful to extract the empsalary table we use in the
regression tests, which is evidently the same data that was used
to make these results.  So I shoved that into advanced.source
to improve the coverage of that file a little.  (There's still
several pages of the tutorial that are not included in it,
but at least now 3.5 Window Functions is covered.)

tutorial
========

This directory contains SQL tutorial scripts.  To look at them, first do a
	% make
to compile all the scripts and C files for the user-defined functions
and types.  (make needs to be GNU make --- it may be named something
different on your system, often 'gmake')

Then, run psql with the -s (single-step) flag:
	% psql -s

From within psql, you can try each individual script file by using
psql's \i <filename> command.
