Great. I think users will know how to use isAssignment now.

No, I meant ExprEvalStep struct. For example, within 
ExecEvalSubscriptingRefFetch() you assign *op->resvalue but *op->resnull is 
leaved as unchanged:

For jsonb *op->resnull is changed within jsonb_subscript_fetch() for arrays 
within array_subscript_fetch() (which are called by 
ExecEvalSubscriptingRefFetch()):

It is not critical, but it may be good to change them in one place.

New tests passed.
