Given that this is a very niche static function with very few callsites, I'm
not too worried about it being called with NULL. That being said, defensive
programming isn't just to defend against what we know but also what we don't
know about so I'm not against adding such protections. There are likely many
other functions in this file which could benefit more from pg_attribute_nonnull
but we also need to start somewhere.
