BUG #13798: Unexpected multiple exection of user defined function with out parameters

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      13798

PostgreSQL version: 9.4.5
Operating system:   Ubuntu 12.04
Description:

I've found that when a user defined function has
out parameters, it is invoked once per out parameter if invoked with the
syntax:

`SELECT (udf()).*`

Is this the expected behavior?  It seems like it shouldn't.

This syntax is undesireable because it is the only way I've found so far to
get the postgresql backend to return all of the out parameters together
as a row, together with the parameters type information, instead of
returning the out parameters together as the text representation of
the composite type that they form together.

To demonstrate, take the function as follows:
```
CREATE FUNCTION demo(
  OUT param1 text,
  OUT param2 text,
  OUT param3 text
) AS $$
BEGIN
  param1 := 'foo';
  param2 := 'bar';
  param3 := 'baz';
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql
```

The query `SELECT demo();` produces the result
```
testdb=# SELECT demo();
     demo
---------------
 (foo,bar,baz)
(1 row)
```
Whereas the query `SELECT (demo()).*` produce the result
```
testdb=# SELECT (demo()).*;
 param1 | param2 | param3
--------+--------+--------
 foo    | bar    | baz
(1 row)
```

I've yet to find another means to get postgresql to produce the result
in such a form.

Unfortunately, I've found that the `SELECT (udf()).*` form executes the
udf once per out parameter.  This is undesirable for both performance
reasons and unacceptable for functions that cause side effects.  To
demonstrate that this is happening I've provided the following example:

```
CREATE TABLE test (
  i integer
);

INSERT into test (i) VALUES (0);

CREATE FUNCTION reproduceBehavior(
  OUT message1 text,
  OUT message2 text,
  OUT message3 text,
  OUT message4 text
)
AS $$
DECLARE t integer;
BEGIN
  SELECT i INTO t FROM test limit 1;
  IF t = 0 THEN
    update test set i=1;
    message1 := 'The value of i is now 1';
  END IF;
  IF t = 1 THEN
    update test set i=2;
    message2 := 'The value of i is now 2';
  END IF;
  IF t = 2 THEN
    update test set i=3;
    message3 := 'The value of i is now 3';
  END IF;
  IF t = 3 THEN
    update test set i=4;
    message4 := 'The value of i is now 4';
  END IF;
  RETURN;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

SELECT (reproduceBehavior()).*;
```

Which produces the result:

```
        message1         |        message2         |        message3
|        message4
-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------
 The value of i is now 1 | The value of i is now 2 | The value of i is now 3
| The value of i is now 4
(1 row)
```

I've reproduced this behavior on:
PostgreSQL 9.3.10 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc
(Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) 4.6.3, 64-bit

and

 PostgreSQL 9.4.5 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc
(Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) 4.6.3, 64-bit
