And to be clear, that's important because the result of
pg_expr_has_type_p fundamentally impacts the meaning of the code (i.e.
it determines the hash function). Our existing usage of
__builtin_types_compatible_p only adds some *optional* type checking,
so for that it's not critical that it works on MSVC too.
