Actually that's exactly what I meant: every time we arrive at a query
with a cached plan, check to see if the active search_path value is the
same as what it was when we made the cached plan, and replan if not.
There's already infrastructure to save the search_path value for a plan,
but what it's being used for right now is to restore the first-plan-time
value of the path when a replan is forced for some other reason. It
wouldn't be that hard to change it around to use it this way instead.
