Right, although if you want it to be callable from SQL I think that
variadic "any" is too loose.

So? You have one validator function, it has either signature;
if it has the old signature then CHECK isn't supported by the language.
We have plenty of examples of this sort of thing already.
One issue that would need to be considered is how the validator tells
the difference between a CREATE FUNCTION call and a CHECK call with
default parameters (no WITH clause). Those shouldn't do exactly the
same thing, presumably. Maybe that's a sufficient reason to have two
entry points.
