Allow PL/Python functions to return arrays of composite types. Also, fix the restriction that plpy.prepare/plpy.execute couldn't handle query parameters or result columns of composite types. In passing, adopt a saner arrangement for where to release the tupledesc reference counts acquired via lookup_rowtype_tupdesc. The callers of PLyObject_ToCompositeDatum were doing the lookups, but then the releases happened somewhere down inside subroutines of PLyObject_ToCompositeDatum, which is bizarre and bug-prone. Instead release in the same function that acquires the refcount. Ed Behn and Ronan Dunklau, reviewed by Abhijit Menon-Sen
