The EvalPlanQual machinery assumes that whole-row Vars generated for the
outputs of non-table RTEs will be of composite types. However, for the
case where the RTE is a function call returning a scalar type, we were
doing the wrong thing, as a result of sharing code with a parser case
where the function's scalar output is wanted. (Or at least, that's what
that case has done historically; it does seem a bit inconsistent.)
To fix, extend makeWholeRowVar's API so that it can support both use-cases.
This fixes Belinda Cussen's report of crashes during concurrent execution
of UPDATEs involving joins to the result of UNNEST() --- in READ COMMITTED
mode, we'd run the EvalPlanQual machinery after a conflicting row update
commits, and it was expecting to get a HeapTuple not a scalar datum from
the "wholerowN" variable referencing the function RTE.
Back-patch to 9.0 where the current EvalPlanQual implementation appeared.
In 9.1 and up, this patch also fixes failure to attach the correct
collation to the Var generated for a scalar-result case. An example:
regression=# select upper(x.*) from textcat('ab', 'cd') x;
ERROR: could not determine which collation to use for upper() function
