Tom Lane 3a382983d1 Allow plperl_sv_to_datum to look through scalar refs.
There seems little reason for the policy of throwing error if we
find a ref to something other than a hash or array.   Recursively
look through the ref, instead.  This makes the behavior in non-transform
cases comparable to what was already instantiated for jsonb_plperl.

Note that because we invoke any available transform function before
considering the ref case, it's up to each transform function whether
it wants to play along with this behavior or do something different.

Because the previous behavior was just to throw a useless error,
this seems unlikely to create any compatibility issues.  Still, given
the lack of field complaints so far, seems best not to back-patch.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
