Postgres_FDW doc doesn't specify TYPE support in Remote Execution Options
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Description:
Hi,
The
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/postgres-fdw.html#POSTGRES-FDW-OPTIONS-REMOTE-EXECUTION
section mentions for `extensions` configuration option:
Functions and operators that are immutable and belong to a listed
extension will be considered shippable to the remote server.
But doesn't mention that extensions' custom data types will be pushed down
as well! I feel it's important and worth mentioning.
I noticed that the lookup_shippable() function in shippable.c file does
mention that:
Returns true if given object (operator/function/type) is shippable
according to the server options.

Can you please update the official docs to call out about types? Thank you!
:)
