Any ideas on how to do that? ExecMakeFunctionResultNoSets() isn't
really doing a heck of a lot. Changing FuncExprState to use an array
rather than a linked list to store its arguments might help some. We
could also consider having an optimized path that skips the fn_strict
stuff if we can somehow deduce that no NULLs can occur in this
context, but that's a lot of work and new infrastructure. I feel like
maybe there's something higher-level we could do that would help more,
but I don't know what it is.
