Fix unnecessary use of moving-aggregate mode with non-moving frame.

Browse Source 
When a plain aggregate is used as a window function, and the window
frame start is specified as UNBOUNDED PRECEDING, the frame's head
cannot move so we do not need to use moving-aggregate mode.  The check
for that was put into initialize_peragg(), failing to notice that
ExecInitWindowAgg() calls that function before it's filled in
winstate->frameOptions.  Since makeNode() would have zeroed the field,
this didn't provoke uninitialized-value complaints, nor would the
erroneous decision have resulted in more than a little inefficiency.
Still, it's wrong, so move the initialization of
winstate->frameOptions earlier to make it work properly.

While here, also fix a thinko in a comment.  Both errors crept in in
commit a9d9acbf2 which introduced the moving-aggregate mode.

Spotted by Vallimaharajan G.  Back-patch to all supported branches.
