Support domains over composite types.
This is the last major omission in our domains feature: you can now make a domain over anything that's not a pseudotype. The major complication from an implementation standpoint is that places that might be creating tuples of a domain type now need to be prepared to apply domain_check(). It seems better that unprepared code fail with an error like "<type> is not composite" than that it silently fail to apply domain constraints. Therefore, relevant infrastructure like get_func_result_type() and lookup_rowtype_tupdesc() has been adjusted to treat domain-over-composite as a distinct case that unprepared code won't recognize, rather than just transparently treating it the same as plain composite. This isn't a 100% solution to the possibility of overlooked domain checks, but it catches most places. In passing, improve typcache.c's support for domains (it can now cache the identity of a domain's base type), and rewrite the argument handling logic in jsonfuncs.c's populate_record[set]_worker to reduce duplicative per-call lookups. I believe this is code-complete so far as the core and contrib code go. The PLs need varying amounts of work, which will be tackled in followup patches.
