Thanks for looking through this.  sj_unique_rtis is actually not set
from the plan tree walk, but based on the calls to
pgpa_join_path_setup that occur during planning, so it makes sense
that the join RTI crept in there. I'm guessing that this is another
place that needs a call to pgpa_filter_out_join_relids -- I've had a
few of those bugs already.
