In a7f107df2 I changed subplan param evaluation to happen within the
containing expression. As part of that, ExecInitSubPlanExpr() was changed to
evaluate parameters via a new EEOP_PARAM_SET expression step. These parameters
were temporarily stored into ExprState->resvalue/resnull, with some reasoning
why that would be fine. Unfortunately, that analysis was wrong -
ExecInitSubscriptionRef() evaluates the input array into "resv"/"resnull",
which will often point to ExprState->resvalue/resnull. This means that the
EEOP_PARAM_SET, if inside an array subscript, would overwrite the input array
to array subscript.
The fix is fairly simple - instead of evaluating into
ExprState->resvalue/resnull, store the temporary result of the subplan in the
subplan's return value.
