Afaik changing prepared statement result structure is prohibited by
Postgres server-side, and should always lead to "ERROR: cached plan
must not change result type", see src/test/regress/sql/plancache.sql.

So yes, from the libpq point of view this is just an server error, which
would be given to the user, the patch shouldn't change any behavior here.

The claim about this always being a server-side error better be
reassured from someone from the Postgres team, of course.
