Hm ... seems like there are two possibilities here.  We could forcibly
recreate the temp schema, or we could just ignore the useTemp flag.

Yeah, I was undecided on that too.

The former would more nearly approximate the situation that prevailed
at GetOverrideSearchPath() time, but on the other hand it's not clear
that it's a good idea for PushOverrideSearchPath() to have side-effects
like that.  I *think* that it'd be safe, at least for the two existing
callers, but ...

In the plancache case it could be argued that there's no real reason
to recreate the temp schema: it would necessarily be empty, so it
couldn't affect the results of planning anyhow.  So the second solution
would work just fine for the current usage.

Thoughts?

Let's do the latter, add a comment noting that, and extend it later if necessary.
