+1 for doing something like this.  However, I don't think we can
commit this to released branches, despite the fact that it's a bug
fix, because breaking third-party FDWs in a minor release seems
unfriendly.  We might be able to slip it into 9.5, though, if we act
quickly.

A few review comments:

- nodeForeignscan.c now needs to #include "utils/memutils.h"
- I think it'd be safer for finalize_plan() not to try to shortcut
processing fdw_scan_quals.
- You forgot to update _readForeignScan.
- The documentation needs updating.
- I think we should use the name fdw_recheck_quals.

Here's an updated patch with those changes and some improvements to
the comments.  Absent objections, I will commit it and back-patch to
9.5 only.
