Tree view 
GetAttributeByNum has first parameter as HeapTupleHeader,  but most functions 
use Datum and after that they call DatumGetHeapTupleHeader. The difference is 
that DatumGetHeapTupleHeader performs detoast on tuple(row type).

Is it intention do not detoast in these functions or it is a bug?
thanks Zdenek
