Fair enough.
I've pushed this after a good deal of further hackery on the code.
Notably
* I had no faith that we still guaranteed to perform
eval_const_expressions on every function-RTE expression. Even if
that were true today, it'd be awfully easy to break in future,
if it only happened somewhere down in the recursion in
pull_up_subqueries_recurse. So I moved that responsibility to
an earlier spot that clearly traverses all function RTEs.
A happy side benefit is that inline_set_returning_function
gets simpler because it can assume that that already happened.
* It looked to me like the pullup_constant_function code wasn't
covering all the places where it might need to replace Vars
referencing the function RTE. I refactored things to avoid
having a bunch of code duplication while ensuring it hits
everyplace that pull_up_simple_subquery does.
