Moved the output reading into the command itself and added support via a virtual for reading values as a generic type for generic parameters.
Probably want to add some tests for the latter, TODO.
Regarding
I've added commentary on why it exists, people likely depend on this behavior as well. An unfortunate holdover from when we didn't have positional parameters.
We also have a test depending on it https://github.com/npgsql/npgsql/blob/main/test/Npgsql.Tests/FunctionTests.cs#L119.
Note how the set consists of named parameters while the columns are unnamed.
