This might be a circumstance where it's really best to just force the
planner to use a particular plan. There's no way to tell it "the order
of the array" without forcing an entirely unnecessary sort.
Something like
SET LOCAL enable_mergejoin = 'off';
SET LOCAL enable_hashjoin = 'off';
SELECT * from unnest(arr) as v(id) join tab using (id)
RESET ALL;
