SYNOPSIS
HeapTupleHeader SPI_returntuple(HeapTuple row, TupleDesc rowdesc)

composite types. It is not used for triggers; use SPI_copytuple for
returning a modified row in a trigger.
ARGUMENTS
HeapTuple row
row to be copied
TupleDesc rowdesc
descriptor for row (pass the same descriptor each time for most
effective caching)
RETURN VALUE
HeapTupleHeader pointing to copied row; NULL only if row or rowdesc is
NULL
