Subject: [PATCH] FOREACH scalar IN ARRAY jsonb_expr

this patch introduce support FOREACH scalar_var IN ARRAY expr, when the
result of the expression can be Jsonb. The design is based
on behave of jsonb_array_elements functions. In this case, FOREACH enforce
casting to target type (because we know target type) and try to reduce
IO casting. Attention: IO casting can be more strict, then casting based
on cast functions.

DECLARE t int;
BEGIN
  -- this can work because we use cast numeric -> int
  FOREACH t IN ARRAY '[1,2,3.14]'::jsonb
  LOOP

  -- this fails, because IO cast is used, and integer input function
  -- allows only digits
  FOREAC t IN JSON ARRAY '[1,2,3,"3.14"]'::jsonb
  LOOP

Conceptual question is if casting should be strict like "old" PostgreSQL
json function or lax as "new" SQL/JSON functions? I can imagine lax mode
as default with possibility to switch to strict mode (this is not implemented
now):

  FOREACH t IN ARRAY '[1,2,3]' ERROR ON EMPTY ERROR ON ERROR
  LOOP
    ...

Because we use "old" syntax - FOREACH IN ARRAY, I prefer "old" behaviour,
that is more similar to iteration over an array.

The performance (best case for iteration over 1000 fields array) is about
4x better than when FOR IN SELECT jsonb_array_elements is used.
