Description
Since PostgreSQL 9.1, is going to reach EOL probably before 2.3 release, it's time to kill it as noted in
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-devel/2015-November/025480.html
Couple of things need changing, some for 2.2 as well
1) our header in docs says if compiling with less than 9.1 (that header should be changed to compiling without raster support) since now it's only relevant if you are compiling with raster support.
http://postgis.net/docs/manual-2.2/postgis_installation.html#create_new_db
This should really read without extension support (no raster)
So it's clearer to folks installing wo raster that they need to use these instructions.
2) Need to update minimum requirements in docs
We should start looking thru our code, to see what stuff we can leverage that is only supported in 9.2+ and take out any ifDEF stuff targetting < 9.2. That can be saved for later as a separate ticket.
