Research direction

Start by reviewing the SQL style rules at http://www.sqlstyle.guide/ and how pgFormatter currently formats SQL through its console program and CGI. Define the required Joe Celko formatting behavior before changing the formatter; done means representative SQL follows the guide consistently in both entry points.
