Fix getTypeIOParam to support type record[].

Since record[] uses array_in, it needs to have its element type passed
as typioparam.  In HEAD and 9.1, this fix essentially reverts commit
9bc933b2125a5358722490acbc50889887bf7680, which was a hack that is no
longer needed since domains don't set their typelem anymore.  Before
that, adjust the logic so that only domains are excluded from being
treated like arrays, rather than assuming that only base types should
be included.  Add a regression test to demonstrate the need for this.
Per report from Maxim Boguk.

Back-patch to 8.4, where type record[] was added.
