Teach nulltestsel() that system columns are never NULL.

While it's perhaps unlikely that users would write an explicit test
like "ctid IS NULL", this function is also used in range estimation,
and an incorrect answer can throw off the results for tight ranges.
Anyway it's not much code so we might as well do it.
