None of these calls are performance-critical, so it hardly matters. I
would rather keep them short and simple.
It might make sense to create a new macro or function for this, though.
Something like:
static inline text *
StringInfoGetTextDatum(StringInfo s)
{
return cstring_to_text_with_len(s->data, s->len);
}
That would perhaps make existing code a bit shorter and nicer to read.
