PFA an implementation of this aggregate.
Here is v2 of this patch. I had forgotten to update sql_features.txt.
In your patch, the documentation says the definition is any_value("any")
but the catalog definitions are any_value(anyelement). Please sort that
out.
Since the transition function is declared strict, null values don't need
to be checked. I think the whole function could be reduced to
Datum
any_value_trans(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
PG_RETURN_DATUM(PG_GETARG_DATUM(0));
}
