Hi! Thank you for your work on this subject.

I agree with your code but one phrase in commit message was confusing 
for me:

"This change is dedicated to more active usage of IndexScan and 
parameterised
NestLoop paths in partitioned cases under an Append node, as it already 
works
with plain tables."

As I understood this thread is about the optimization that allows 
considering Index Scan if we need the limited number of rows and
later the commit message contains it. I didn't understand completely the 
sentence above to be honest.
