extraparameter (that will be constant folded away during the inlining) to the deformed function to specify if cstrings
canexist in the tuple, which seemingly needs to be true when deforming minimal tuples. I'd rather not lose that
optimisationwith heap tuples. 

I've pushed a fix for this.  A more simple recreator was:

with cte as materialized (select relname::cstring as relname from
pg_class) select relname from cte;
