Are you sure that there is no performance impact?  Say implement a
simple SQL-callable function which does textToQualifiedNameList on the
same string N times, and then compare the time it takes to run HEAD and 
the refactored implementation.  I may buy that an extra palloc call is
not something to worry about, but in my experience it can be a problem.

This patch also changes stringToQualifiedNameList from regproc.h to
varlena.h, which would break extensions calling it.  That's not nice
either.
