Fwiw, I had complained when reviewing the run-time pruning patch that
creating those maps in the planner and putting them in
PartitionPruneInfo might not be a good idea, but David insisted that
it'd be good for performance (in the context of using cached plans) to
compute this information during planning.

Thanks,

  3. Speed up planning when partitions can be pruned at plan time.

  4. Avoid crash in partitionwise join planning under GEQO.

  5. Avoid passing query tlist around separately from root->processed_tlist.

  6. Build "other rels" of appendrel baserels in a separate step.

  7. Get rid of duplicate child RTE for a partitioned table.

  8. Rearrange make_partitionedrel_pruneinfo to avoid work when we can't prune.

  9. Don't copy PartitionBoundInfo in set_relation_partition_info.

  10. Move building of child base quals out into a new function
