Commit cbc127917e introduced tracking of unpruned relids to avoid processing pruned relations, and changed ExecInitModifyTable() to initialize only unpruned result relations. As a result, MERGE statements that prune all target partitions can now lead to crashes or incorrect behavior during execution. The crash occurs because some executor code paths rely on ModifyTableState.resultRelInfo[0] being present and initialized, even when no result relations remain after pruning. For example, ExecMerge() and ExecMergeNotMatched() use the first resultRelInfo to determine the appropriate action. Similarly, ExecInitPartitionInfo() assumes that at least one result relation exists. To preserve these assumptions, ExecInitModifyTable() now includes the first result relation in the initialized result relation list if all result relations for that ModifyTable were pruned. To enable that, ExecDoInitialPruning() ensures the first relation is locked if it was pruned and locking is necessary. To support this exception to the pruning logic, PlannedStmt now includes a list of RT indexes identifying the first result relation of each ModifyTable node in the plan. This allows ExecDoInitialPruning() to check whether each such relation was pruned and, if so, lock it if necessary.
