Amit Langote 77aebe9a8d SQL/JSON: Avoid initializing unnecessary ON ERROR / ON EMPTY steps ...

When the ON ERROR / ON EMPTY behavior is to return NULL, returning
NULL directly from ExecEvalJsonExprPath() suffices. Therefore, there's
no need to create separate steps to check the error/empty flag or
those to evaluate the the constant NULL expression.  This speeds up
common cases because the default ON ERROR / ON EMPTY behavior for
JSON_QUERY() and JSON_VALUE() is to return NULL.  However, these steps
are necessary if the RETURNING type is a domain, as constraints on the
domain may need to be checked.
