Here's a pretty-nearly-final version of the patch.
In 0001 below, I've left it throwing an error for the case of all
ANYCOMPATIBLE inputs being unknown, but the documentation fails to
acknowledge that. 0002 below is a delta patch that switches to the
other approach of resolving as TEXT. I'm pretty well convinced that
0002 is what we should do, so I have not bothered to write a doc
change that would explain 0001's behavior on this point.
regards, tom lane
