Looking at this for a bit, I wondered if this crash wouldn't have occurred
if the "propagation" had also considered join relations in addition to
simple relations. For example, if I changed inheritance_planner like the
attached (not proposing that we consider committing it), reported crash
doesn't occur. The fact that it's not currently that way means that
somebody thought that there is no point in keeping all of those joinrels
around until plan creation time. If that is so, is it a bit worrying that
a FDW function invoked from createplan.c may try to look for one?
