maybe it's consistent that spi_prepare arguments ignore typmods too.
Thoughts?
I'd like to see us move towards supporting that; both for function
parameters/results as well as inside functions. It'd be nice if both
cases got fixed at once, but IMHO fixing only one now would be better
than fixing none.
