Description:
------------
The pg_insert and pg_update functions will not accept now() as a valid value for timestamp fields.

Reproduce code:
---------------
// Assumes the following table exists:
/*
  CREATE TABLE timestamp_test
  (
    id serial NOT NULL, 
    mytime timestamp NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT timestamp_test_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
   )
   WITHOUT OIDS;
*/


$dbConn = pg_connect();

$values = array('mytime' => 'now()');
pg_insert($dbConn, 'timestamp_test', $values);

$ids = array('id' => 1);
$fields = array('mytime' => 'now()');
pg_update($dbConn, 'timestamp_test', $fields, $ids);

Expected result:
----------------
Both the insert and the update should succeed.

Actual result:
--------------
