when did use varchar_transform function?

The main point of that machinery is that if you do something like
ALTER TABLE zot ALTER COLUMN thunk SET DATA TYPE varchar(30) on a
column that is currently varchar(20), it won't feel obliged to rewrite
the table. That function lets it figure out that anything that's a
valid varchar(20) value is also a valid varchar(30) value.
