I'd like to use type information in a query result to convert its
elements to more appropriate types if necessary.

Can I embed the types I'm interested in into my program, or should I
query the server at least once per connection to get the mapping?  I'm
interested in types such as INTEGER, TEXT, BYTEA, etc.  No user
defined types, and nothing fancy.  Ultra-long-term portability isn't
required, either.
