Instead of having heap_form_flattened_tuple(), how about
heap_flatten_values(tupleDesc, values, isnull) that is documented to
modify the values array? Then instead of replacing the
heap_form_tuple() calls with a call to heap_form_flattened_tuple(),
you just insert a call to heap_flatten_values() before the call to
heap_form_tuple(). I think that might be easier for people looking at
this code in the future to understand what's happening.
