Allowing that is a security hole, since there are many different functions with different ideas of what their "internal" argument or result is. We already had a defense against the easy case of "'foo'::internal", but that turns out to be insufficient. Lock down both function and operator syntax. Also disallow attempts to cast to or from type internal; those would mostly fail anyway, but we have created some holes with features such as CoerceViaIO.
