Returning resource makes sense. Assigned again.

I think twice if returning oid is good.
It may be useful for some applications, but it may not for recent usages. 
Recent 
postgresql apps omits OID often.

Therefore, I'll not change this behavior.

OID was always available for old PostgreSQL, but OID can be omitted. 

It's possible to return OID when it's available otherwise return true.

Description:
------------
Currently, pg_insert() returns a bool rather than a resource. Usually, insert 
queries return resources which can be passed to pg_last_oid() for pulling the 
OID of that insert statement's created row. However, nothing can really be done 
with the "true" return value given by pg_insert(), therefore making it not 
quite as useful a function as it could be.
