plperl.c patch to correctly support bytea inputs and output to functions and triggers.

I've found a bug with the way plperl/plperlu handles bytea types.  It
fails to correctly handle bytea binary inputs and outputs.  Perl
scalars are wrongly treated as C strings when a the source or
destination tuple in postgres is of type bytea.

The attached patch alters the code path for inputs and outputs with
the BYTEAOID type.

"Works for me"

==== begin plperl_bytea.sql ====
create or replace function pl_octet_length(bytea) returns integer as $$
return length($_[0]);
$$ language plperl;
create or replace function pl_produce_bytea() returns bytea as $$
return "\0\0\0\0\0\0see me?";
$$ language plperl;
==== end plperl_bytea.sql ===

PROBLEM:

pltest=# select pl_octet_length(E'\012\015'), octet_length(E'\012\015');
pl_octet_length | octet_length
-----------------+--------------
                8 |            2
(1 row)
pltest=# select pl_produce_bytea(), octet_length(pl_produce_bytea());
pl_produce_bytea | octet_length
------------------+--------------
                   |            0
(1 row)

AFTER PATCH:

pltest=# select pl_octet_length(E'\012\015'), octet_length(E'\012\015');
pl_octet_length | octet_length
-----------------+--------------
                2 |            2
(1 row)

pltest=# select pl_produce_bytea(), octet_length(pl_produce_bytea());
         pl_produce_bytea         | octet_length
---------------------------------+--------------
\000\000\000\000\000\000see me? |           13
(1 row)
