Fix parsing of parenthesised OLD/NEW in RETURNING list.

When parsing expressions like (old).colname and (old).* in a RETURNING
list, the parser would lose track of the intended varreturningtype,
and therefore return incorrect results.

The root cause was code using GetNSItemByRangeTablePosn() to find a
namespace item from its rtindex and levelsup, without taking into
account returningtype, which would return the wrong namespace item.
Fix by adding a new function GetNSItemByVar() that does take
returningtype into account.

Backpatch to v18, where support for RETURNING OLD/NEW was added.
