Hm. At least in the first of these cases, the problem is that the code
I committed yesterday doesn't account for indirect lateral dependencies.
That is, if S1 depends on S2 which depends on the inner side of an outer
join, it now knows not to join S2 directly to the outer side of the outer
join, but it doesn't realize that the same must apply to S1.
Maybe we should redefine lateral_relids as the transitive closure of
a rel's lateral dependencies? Not sure.
