Looks to me like all the bigendian critters are unhappy with that.
The previous plan (trying it on 9.6) was

GroupAggregate (cost=20.68..22.77 rows=400 width=52)
Group Key: dataa, (unnest('{1,1,3}'::integer[]))
-> Sort (cost=20.68..20.69 rows=4 width=40)
Sort Key: dataa, (unnest('{1,1,3}'::integer[]))
-> Seq Scan on few (cost=0.00..20.64 rows=4 width=40)
Filter: (id = 1)

and now we get

HashAggregate (cost=27.66..27.71 rows=4 width=52)
Group Key: dataa, unnest('{1,1,3}'::integer[])
-> ProjectSet (cost=0.00..22.66 rows=400 width=40)
-> Seq Scan on few (cost=0.00..20.62 rows=4 width=36)
Filter: (id = 1)

This is a good thing: it's coming up with a saner rowcount estimate,
ie it realizes that the sort or hash is going to see a number of rows
inflated by the SRF, and that's prompting it to go with a hashagg not
a sortagg. But then you get platform-dependent output order from
the hashagg.

If you don't want an ORDER BY, maybe turn off enable_hashagg for
these queries? But you'll get the same plan either way.
