Remove the code for inserting flag columns in the inputs of a SetOp. That was the only reason why there would be resjunk columns in a set-operations plan tree, so we can get rid of some code that supported that, too. Get rid of choose_hashed_setop() in favor of building Paths for the hashed and sorted alternatives, and letting them fight it out within add_path(). Remove set_operation_ordered_results_useful(), which was giving wrong answers due to examining the wrong ancestor node: we need to examine the immediate SetOperationStmt parent not the topmost node. Instead make each caller of recurse_set_operations() pass down the relevant parent node. (This thinko seems to have led only to wasted planning cycles and possibly-inferior plans, not wrong query answers. Perhaps we should back-patch it, but I'm not doing so right now.) Teach generate_nonunion_paths() to consider pre-sorted inputs for sorted SetOps, rather than always generating a Sort node. Patch by me; thanks to Richard Guo and David Rowley for review.
