Hi Marat,

> V4 path with fixed usage PG_GETARG_BYTEA_PP instead of PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP

Thanks for the patch.

Please add it to the nearest open commitfest [1].

```
+select min(v) from bytea_test_table;
+ min
+------
+ \xaa
+(1 row)
+
+select max(v) from bytea_test_table;
+ max
+------
+ \xff
+(1 row)
```

If I understand correctly, all the v's are of the same size. If this
is the case you should add more test cases.
