Oh ... never mind that last.  The parent Append will run its children
sequentially, so that the Gathers execute one at a time, and at no
point will more than 2 workers be active.

Nonetheless, it's a damfool query plan, because we'll be going through
parallel worker startup/shutdown overhead 4 times for no benefit.
We really should put in some kind of logic to force those sibling
Gathers to be aggregated into one, or else disallow them altogether.
