There will be 1 record max and 0 record if the primary_slot_name is
invalid. Keeping 'count(*)=1' gives the benefit that it will straight
away give us true/false indicating if we are good or not wrt
primary_slot_name. I feel Assert can be removed and we can simply
have:
if (!tuplestore_gettupleslot(res->tuplestore, true, false, tupslot))
elog(ERROR, "failed to fetch primary_slot_name tuple");
