Thanks for the report! Bisecting shows that this broke at
456fa635a909ee36f73ca84d340521bd730f265f is the first bad commit

Teach planner about more monotonic window functions
9d9c02ccd introduced runConditions for window functions to allow
monotonic window function evaluation to be made more efficient when the
window function value went beyond some value that it would never go back
from due to its monotonic nature. That commit added prosupport functions
to inform the planner that row_number(), rank(), dense_rank() and some
forms of count(*) were monotonic. Here we add support for ntile(),
cume_dist() and percent_rank().
So I'm betting there's something wrong with the ntile support
function, but I've not dug deeper.
