Fix a bug introduced when set-returning SQL functions were made inline-able:
we have to cope with the possibility that the declared result rowtype contains dropped columns. This fails in 8.4, as per bug #5240. While at it, be more paranoid about inserting binary coercions when inlining. The pre-8.4 code did not really need to worry about that because it could not inline at all in any case where an added coercion could change the behavior of the function's statement. However, when inlining a SRF we allow sorting, grouping, and set-ops such as UNION. In these cases, modifying one of the targetlist entries that the sort/group/setop depends on could conceivably change the behavior of the function's statement --- so don't inline when such a case applies.
