I have not been following the recent thread about the refactoring of
TupleSlot and such very closely, but if you don't plan to use
TupleTableSlot in FuncCallContext in the future, cannot this just go
away?  The function is not here anymore, so my take would be to get rid
of all things which relied on its presence.
