Previously, get_cached_rowtype() cached a pointer to a reference-counted
tuple descriptor from the typcache, relying on the ExprContextCallback
mechanism to release the tupdesc refcount when the expression tree
using the tupdesc was destroyed. This worked fine when it was designed,
but the introduction of within-DO-block COMMITs broke it. The refcount
is logged in a transaction-lifespan resource owner, but plpgsql won't
destroy simple expressions made within the DO block (before its first
commit) until the DO block is exited. That results in a warning about
a leaked tupdesc refcount when the COMMIT destroys the original resource
owner, and then an error about the active resource owner not holding a
matching refcount when the expression is destroyed.
To fix, get rid of the need to have a shutdown callback at all, by
instead caching a pointer to the relevant typcache entry. Those
survive for the life of the backend, so we needn't worry about the
pointer becoming stale. (For registered RECORD types, we can still
cache a pointer to the tupdesc, knowing that it won't change for the
life of the backend.) This mechanism has been in use in plpgsql
and expandedrecord.c since commit

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/.
