Here's a big patch to avoid passing around type OID + typmod (+ collation) separately all over the place. Instead, there is a new struct TypeInfo that contains these fields, and only a pointer is passed around. Some stuff in here (or not in here) is probably a matter of taste, as with any such large refactoring, but in general you can see that it saves a lot of notational overhead.
