I think it'd be better to match the comment with that for
create_foreignscan_path(). So how about "ForeignPath represents a
potential scan of a foreign table, foreign join, or foreign
upper-relation processing"? I think we would probably need to update
the comment in src/backend/optimizer/README (L358), too.
