I want to update the value of one column of a composite type, but I'm 
getting a syntax error on the sql sequel generates.

DB[:my_table].where(id: 1).update(:complex_column.pg_row[:my_column] => 
'my_value')

This results in the following SQL

UPDATE "my_table" SET ("complex_column")."my_column" = 'my_value' WHERE (
"id" = 1)

Postgres doesn't like the parentheses around complex_column (here's a link 
to the docs that say this 
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/rowtypes.html#AEN8116). Is there 
another way to do this other than using 
"complex_column.my_column".lit

for the column name in the update call?

ruby version: 2.3.1
sequel version: 4.44.0
sequel_pg version: 1.6.17
pg version: 0.18.4
PostgreSQL Version 9.5.0

Thanks,
Matt
