Yeah, because the "data" value is just a pointer into the tupdesc
associated with the SPI result, and that disappears the moment you
do SPI_finish(). You'd need to do something to copy the strings
into a longer-lived context. A plain pstrdup() won't suffice
because you're in a short-lived SPI context already inside that
loop; but you could save CurrentMemoryContext before starting up
SPI and then use MemoryContextStrdup.
