Postpone generate_gather_paths for topmost scan/join rel.

Browse Source 
Don't call generate_gather_paths for the topmost scan/join relation
when it is initially populated with paths.  Instead, do the work in
grouping_planner.  By itself, this gains nothing; in fact it loses
slightly because we end up calling set_cheapest() for the topmost
scan/join rel twice rather than once.  However, it paves the way for
a future commit which will postpone generate_gather_paths for the
topmost scan/join relation even further, allowing more accurate
costing of parallel paths.

different substantially) were reviewed by Dilip Kumar, Amit
Khandekar, Marina Polyakova, and Ashutosh Bapat.
