Improve support for composite types in PL/Python.
Allow PL/Python functions to return arrays of composite types.
Also, fix the restriction that plpy.prepare/plpy.execute couldn't
handle query parameters or result columns of composite types.
In passing, adopt a saner arrangement for where to release the
tupledesc reference counts acquired via lookup_rowtype_tupdesc.
The callers of PLyObject_ToCompositeDatum were doing the lookups,
but then the releases happened somewhere down inside subroutines
of PLyObject_ToCompositeDatum, which is bizarre and bug-prone.
Instead release in the same function that acquires the refcount.
