Subject: [PATCH] Remove obsolete heap_formtuple/modifytuple/deformtuple
 functions.

These variants used the old-style 'n'/' ' NULL indicators. The new-style
functions have been available since version 8.1. That should be long enough
that if there is still any old external code using these functions, they
can just switch to the new functions without worrying about backwards
compatibility
