Log Message:
-----------
Fix ExecMakeTableFunctionResult to verify that all rows returned by a SRF
returning "record" actually do have the same rowtype. This is needed because
the parser can't realistically enforce that they will all have the same typmod,
as seen in a recent example from David Wheeler.

Back-patch to 8.0, which is as far back as we have the notion of RECORD
subtypes being distinguished by typmod. Wheeler's example depends on
8.4-and-up features, but I suspect there may be ways to provoke similar
failures before 8.4.
