This patch is nowhere near ready for submission :-(. Most of the
comments seem to be "I don't know what to do here" ...
A general hint on the polymorphic stuff is that you should be able to
exactly duplicate what's done for polymorphic functions --- or even
better, get rid of the separate code for aggregates and just invoke
the existing logic for functions. (You might need to refactor code
a little bit to separate out the common functionality.)
Instead of copying data inside advance_transition_function, it might
be better for the caller to store the values into the right fields
of a temporary FunctionCallInfoData struct, and just pass that to
advance_transition_function.
The names for the new aggregates seem a bit, how to say, terse and
unfriendly. SQL generally tends to a more verbose style of naming.
