I don't think the translation happens twice for the same leaf partitions.

Applying adjust_appendrel_attrs_*multilevel* for only leaf nodes, as
happens with the current code, is same as first translating using
adjust_appendrel_attrs from part to sub1 and then from sub1 to leaf1 and
leaf2 during recursion with sub1 as the parent.

Actually, inheritance_planner is also using
adjust_appendrel_attrs_multilevel.  I'm not sure if you're looking at the
latest (10/26) patch.
