How big a deal do we think test coverage is?  It looks like
ExecReScanGatherMerge is identical logic to ExecReScanGather,
which *is* covered according to coverage.postgresql.org, but
it wouldn't be too surprising if they diverge in future.

I should think it wouldn't be that expensive to create a test
case, if you already have test cases that invoke GatherMerge.
Adding a right join against a VALUES clause with a small number of
entries, and a non-mergeable/hashable join clause, ought to do it.
