The implementation in GMS for
IS NULLchecks if the value isNULLor not. For record and composite types in Postgres,IS NULLneeds to check if each value in the record or composite type isNULLto determine if the value isNULL. See dolthub/doltgresql#1520 for more details.This change creates a new shared type, named
TupleValue, in GMS that is used for record values (and eventually, composite type values). I also considered giving Doltgres it's own, customIsNullimplementation, but the analyzer does specific checks and optimizations when it looks for*expression.IsNullinstances, which would stop working correctly.
