 * - A native composite value, which is a PostgreSQL HeapTupleHeader
 * - A return composite value, which is a vector of AnyType objects

/**
 * @brief Cast that extract the proper type from AnyType but leaves other types

 *
 * Sometimes it is desirable to write generic code that works on both an
 * \c AnyType object as well as a value with a concrete type. For instance, a
 * \c FunctionHandle always returns an \c AnyType object. In generatic code,
 * however, a \c FunctionHandle might as well be replaced by just call a
 * "normal" functor or a C++ function pointer, both of which typically return
 * concrete types (e.g., double).
 *
 * In generic code, we could write <tt>AnyType_cast<double>(func())</tt> so that
 * if the template parameter \c Function is \c AnyType, we have an explicit
 * conversion to \c double, and if \c Function is just a function pointer, the
 * return value of <tt>func()</tt> passes unchanged.
