Log Message: ----------- Avoid an Assert failure in deconstruct_array() by making get_attstatsslot() use the actual element type of the array it's disassembling, rather than trusting the type OID passed in by its caller. This is needed because sometimes the planner passes in a type OID that's only binary-compatible with the target column's type, rather than being an exact match. Per an example from Bernd Helmle.
Possibly we should refactor get_attstatsslot/free_attstatsslot to not expect the caller to supply type ID data at all, but for now I'll just do the minimum-change fix. Back-patch to 7.4. Bernd's test case only crashes back to 8.0, but since these subroutines are the same in 7.4, I suspect there may be variant cases that would crash 7.4 as well.
