Tom Lane 662d12aea1 Avoid crash in eval_const_expressions if a Param's type changes.
Since commit 6719b238e it's been possible for the values of plpgsql
record field variables to be exposed to the planner as Params.
(Before that, plpgsql never supplied values for such variables during
planning, so that the problematic code wasn't reached.)  Other places
that touch potentially-type-mutable Params either cope gracefully or
do runtime-test-and-ereport checks that the type is what they expect.
But eval_const_expressions() just had an Assert, meaning that it either
failed the assertion or risked crashes due to using an incompatible
value.

In this case, rather than throwing an ereport immediately, we can just
not perform a const-substitution in case of a mismatch.  This seems
important for the same reason that the Param fetch was speculative:
we might not actually reach this part of the expression at runtime.

Test case will follow in a separate commit.

Patch by me, pursuant to bug report from Andrew Gierth.
Back-patch to v11 where the previous commit appeared.

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
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
