I think we could just let this code assume success for type RECORD. It
won't affect VACUUM/ANALYZE, since there are (for reasons that should
now be obvious) no table or index columns of anonymous composite types.
What I was thinking last night is that it'd be smart to move all this
logic into the typcache, instead of repeating all the work each time we
make the check. I'm not convinced that get_sort_group_operators is the
only place we'd have to change if we keep the logic outside the
typcache, anyway. (I seem to recall there is someplace in the planner
that has a similar check.)
