A idea so this patch is cache of cache is not exact

Access to array needs lot of metadata related to element type. These
metadata are statics. I can store these data when we first access a
variable with data. ccache is relative fast - hash search, but should
not be faster than just direct access to structure. This technique is
used more time in PL/pgSQL.
