The more important part of this has been committed by Robert. The other
part, while also important in my opinion, has by now slipped 9.5.
I've moved it.

I'm a bit hesitant about performance regressions around it. And I'd
obviously rather not see the macros but the inline version ;). But I
think overall we're in a better position with it, than without. If it
turns out to have bad edge cases performancewise, we can still "turn it
off" in plpgsql without much problems. If we, preferrably, can't find a
better solution for the performance problem.

This has been in a limbo for a very long time. I'm right now working
with Andrew getting it into a a committable shape. I'm not 100% sure
we'll succeed for 9.5, but it deserves a chance. If it doesn't make it
into 9.6, I plan to get into 9.6 soon after the branch opens.

Not yet ready in my opinion.
