Tighten array dimensionality checks in Perl -> SQL array conversion.
plperl_array_to_datum() wasn't sufficiently careful about checking
that nested lists represent a rectangular array structure; it would
accept inputs such as "[1, []]". This is a bit related to the
PL/Python bug fixed in commit 81eaaf65e, but it doesn't seem to
provide any direct route to a memory stomp. Instead the likely
failure mode is for makeMdArrayResult to be passed fewer Datums than
the claimed array dimensionality requires, possibly leading to a wild
pointer dereference and SIGSEGV.
Per report from Alexander Lakhin. It's been broken for a long
time, so back-patch to all supported branches.
