If there's anything in either the cache entry itself or the function's
other persistent state that is dependent on which table it's attached
to, then yeah, obviously. But another conceivable solution would be to
not store any such information.
In a quick look, it seems like the "PLyTypeInfo result" field might
depend on which table the trigger is attached to, so unless we can
get along without that, we'll need to expand the hash key.
Actually I'm wondering a bit why there are two hash tables at all.
Seems like one table with a hash key of (fnoid, reloid) could be
used, with the convention of reloid = 0 for non-trigger calls.
