This patch needed to be rebased due to the changes made in b140c8d7a.
I also adjusted a few comments and adjusted some code in
simplify_aggref() which mistakenly assumed the support function would
always return an Aggref. That conflicted with what I'd written in the
header comment for the SupportRequestSimplifyAggref struct; "(probably
another Aggref)". Which is leaving the door open for more aggressive
optimisations that someone might want to do, e.g. the mentioned
COUNT(NULL) replaced with '0'::bigint.
I'm not seeing any reason now not to go ahead with this now. Does
anyone else want to take a look at it before I start wielding the
sword of commitment on it?
