 * execTuples.c
 *    Routines dealing with TupleTableSlots.  These are used for resource
 *    management associated with tuples (eg, releasing buffer pins for
 *    tuples in disk buffers, or freeing the memory occupied by transient
 *    tuples).  Slots also provide access abstraction that lets us implement
 *    "virtual" tuples to reduce data-copying overhead.
 *
 *    Routines dealing with the type information for tuples. Currently,
 *    the type information for a tuple is an array of FormData_pg_attribute.
 *    This information is needed by routines manipulating tuples
 *    (getattribute, formtuple, etc.).
 *
 *
 *   EXAMPLE OF HOW TABLE ROUTINES WORK
 *      Suppose we have a query such as SELECT emp.name FROM emp and we have
 *      a single SeqScan node in the query plan.
 *
 *      At ExecutorStart()
 *      ----------------
 *
 *      - ExecInitSeqScan() calls ExecInitScanTupleSlot() to construct a
 *        TupleTableSlots for the tuples returned by the access method, and
 *        ExecInitResultTypeTL() to define the node's return
 *        type. ExecAssignScanProjectionInfo() will, if necessary, create
 *        another TupleTableSlot for the tuples resulting from performing
 *        target list projections.
 *
 *      During ExecutorRun()
 *      ----------------
 *      - SeqNext() calls ExecStoreBufferHeapTuple() to place the tuple
 *        returned by the access method into the scan tuple slot.
 *
 *      - ExecSeqScan() (via ExecScan), if necessary, calls ExecProject(),
 *        putting the result of the projection in the result tuple slot. If
 *        not necessary, it directly returns the slot returned by SeqNext().
 *
 *      - ExecutePlan() calls the output function.
 *
 *      The important thing to watch in the executor code is how pointers
 *      to the slots containing tuples are passed instead of the tuples
 *      themselves.  This facilitates the communication of related information
 *      (such as whether or not a tuple should be pfreed, what buffer contains
 *      this tuple, the tuple's tuple descriptor, etc).  It also allows us
 *      to avoid physically constructing projection tuples in many cases.

 * BuildTupleFromCStrings).  Be sure also that the tupledesc used to build
 * the tuple has a properly "blessed" rowtype.
 *
 * Formerly this was a macro equivalent to PointerGetDatum, relying on the
 * fact that heap_form_tuple fills in the appropriate tuple header fields
 * for a composite Datum.  However, we now require that composite Datums not
 * contain any external TOAST pointers.  We do not want heap_form_tuple itself
 * to enforce that; more specifically, the rule applies only to actual Datums
 * and not to HeapTuple structures.  Therefore, HeapTupleHeaderGetDatum is
 * now a function that detects whether there are externally-toasted fields
 * and constructs a new tuple with inlined fields if so.  We still need
 * heap_form_tuple to insert the Datum header fields, because otherwise this
 * code would have no way to obtain a tupledesc for the tuple.
 *
 * Note that if we do build a new tuple, it's palloc'd in the current
 * memory context.  Beware of code that changes context between the initial
 * heap_form_tuple/etc call and calling HeapTuple(Header)GetDatum.
 *
 * For performance-critical callers, it could be worthwhile to take extra
 * steps to ensure that there aren't TOAST pointers in the output of
 * heap_form_tuple to begin with.  It's likely however that the costs of the
 * typcache lookup and tuple disassembly/reassembly are swamped by TOAST
 * dereference costs, so that the benefits of such extra effort would be
 * minimal.
 *
 * XXX it would likely be better to create wrapper functions that produce
 * a composite Datum from the field values in one step.  However, there's
 * enough code using the existing APIs that we couldn't get rid of this
 * hack anytime soon.
