Don't crash if cursor_to_xmlschema is used on a non-data-returning Portal.
cursor_to_xmlschema() assumed that any Portal must have a tupDesc,
which is not so. Add a defensive check.
It's plausible that this mistake occurred because of the rather
poorly chosen name of the lookup function SPI_cursor_find(),
which in such cases is returning something that isn't very much
like a cursor. Add some documentation to try to forestall future
errors of the same ilk.
Report and patch by Boyu Yang (docs changes by me). Back-patch
to all supported branches.
