Better solution to the problem of labeling whole-row Datums that are

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit d9cb48786ee8 · 2005-10-19T22:30:30.000Z
generated from subquery outputs: use the type info stored in the Var
itself.  To avoid making ExecEvalVar and slot_getattr more complex
and slower, I split out the whole-row case into a separate ExecEval routine.
