Good to have you back.

There's a small problem with get_partitions_for_keys_list(), the
following case hits the Assert(false) at the bottom of that function.

create table ab_c (a int not null, b char) partition by list(a);
create table abc_a2 (b char, a int not null) partition by list(b);
create table abc_a2_b3 partition of abc_a2 for values in ('3');
alter table ab_c attach partition abc_a2 for values in (2);

select * from ab_c where a between 1 and 2 and b <= '2';
