  9. Fix logic error in add_paths_to_partial_grouping_rel.

  10. Minor cleanup of code related to partially_grouped_rel.

  11. Add a new upper planner relation for partially-aggregated results.

  12. Charge cpu_tuple_cost * 0.5 for Append and MergeAppend nodes.

  13. Rename enable_partition_wise_join to enable_partitionwise_join

  14. Factor some code out of create_grouping_paths.
