Tom Lane ece1154f4c Allow extracting fields from a ROW() expression in more cases. 
Teach get_expr_result_type() to manufacture a tuple descriptor directly
from a RowExpr node.  If the RowExpr has type RECORD, this is the only
way to get a tupdesc for its result, since even if the rowtype has been
blessed, we don't have its typmod available at this point.  (If the
RowExpr has some named composite type, we continue to let the existing
code handle it, since the RowExpr might well not have the correct column
names embedded in it.)

This fixes assorted corner cases illustrated by the added regression
tests.

This is a back-patch of the v13-era commit 8b7a0f1d1 into previous
branches.  At the time I'd judged it not important enough to back-patch,
but the upcoming fix for bug #18077 includes a test case that depends
on this working correctly; and 8b7a0f1d1 has now aged long enough to
have good confidence that it won't break anything.

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/.
