Don't assume a subquery's output is unique if there's a SRF in its tlist.

Don't assume a subquery's output is unique if there's a SRF in its tlist. While the x output of "select x from t group by x" can be presumed unique, this does not hold for "select x, generate_series(1,10) from t group by x", because we may expand the set-returning function after the grouping step. (Perhaps that should be re-thought; but considering all the other oddities involved with SRFs in targetlists, it seems unlikely we'll change it.) Put a check in query_is_distinct_for() so it's not fooled by such cases. Back-patch to all supported branches. David Rowley
