Hi

I found some code like the following:

StringInfoData s;
...
values[6] = CStringGetTextDatum(s.data);

The length of string can be found in ' StringInfoData.len',
but the macro CStringGetTextDatum will use strlen to count the length again.
I think we can use PointerGetDatum(cstring_to_text_with_len(s.data, s.len)) to 
improve.

#define CStringGetTextDatum(s) PointerGetDatum(cstring_to_text(s))
text *
cstring_to_text(const char *s)
{
        return cstring_to_text_with_len(s, strlen(s));
}


There may have more places that can get the length of string in advance,
But that may need new variable to store it ,So I just find all StringInfoData 
cases.

None of these calls are performance-critical, so it hardly matters. I would rather keep them short and simple.

It might make sense to create a new macro or function for this, though. Something like:

static inline text *
StringInfoGetTextDatum(StringInfo s)
{
    return cstring_to_text_with_len(s->data, s->len);
}

That would perhaps make existing code a bit shorter and nicer to read.
