Adding a DestReceiver type is a good solution ... although that static
variable is not. Instead define a DestReceiver extension struct that
can carry the CopyState pointer for you. You could also consider
putting the copy-from-view-specific state fields into DestReceiver
instead of CopyState, though this is a bit asymmetric with the relation
case so maybe it's not really cleaner.
BTW, lose the tuple_to_values function --- it's an extremely bad
reimplementation of heap_deform_tuple. copy_dest_printtup also seems
coded without regard for the TupleTableSlot access API (read printtup()
to see what to do instead). And what's the point of factoring out the
heap_getnext loop as CopyRelationTo? It's not like that lets you share
any more code. The inside of the loop, ie what you've called
CopyValuesTo, is the sharable part.
