You cannot implement this kind of function, unless you want to create one
version for each data type combination. But consider replacing the IF()
function with the standard CASE expression:
CASE WHEN expr1 THEN expr_if_true ELSE expr_if_false END
Also note that in PostgreSQL there is a boolean type, and 0 and 1 are not
valid boolean values.
