Fix EXPLAIN to handle SEARCH BREADTH FIRST queries.

The rewriter transformation for SEARCH BREADTH FIRST produces a
FieldSelect on a Var of type RECORD, where the Var references the
recursive union's worktable output.  EXPLAIN VERBOSE failed to handle
this case, because it only expected such Vars to appear in CteScans
not WorkTableScans.  Fix that, and add some test cases exercising
EXPLAIN on SEARCH and CYCLE queries.

In principle this oversight is an old bug, but it seems that the
case is unreachable without SEARCH BREADTH FIRST, because the
parser fails when attempting to create such a reference manually.
So for today I'll just patch HEAD/v14.  Someday we might find that
the code portion of this patch needs to be back-patched further.

Per report from Atsushi Torikoshi.
