Commit 811af9786b introduced palloc() calls into systable_beginscan()
and systable_beginscan_ordered(). But there was no pfree(), as is the
usual style.
It turns out that an ANALYZE of a partitioned table can invoke many
thousand system table index scans, and this memory is not cleaned up
until the end of the command, so this can temporarily leak quite a bit
of memory. Maybe there are improvements to be made at a higher level
about this, but for now, insert a couple of corresponding pfree()
calls to fix this particular issue.
