Tom Lane 9d9784c840 Remove bogus assertion about polymorphic SQL function result.
It is possible to reach check_sql_fn_retval() with an unresolved
polymorphic rettype, resulting in an assertion failure as demonstrated
by one of the added test cases.  However, the code following that
throws what seems an acceptable error message, so just remove the
Assert and adjust commentary.

While here, I thought it'd be a good idea to provide some parallel
tests of SQL-function and PL/pgSQL-function polymorphism behavior.
Some of these cases are perhaps duplicative of tests elsewhere,
but we hadn't any organized coverage of the topic AFAICS.

Although that assertion's been wrong all along, it won't have any
effect in production builds, so I'm not bothering 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
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
