Remove code setting wrap_non_vars to true for UNION ALL subqueries
In pull_up_simple_subquery and pull_up_constant_function, there is
code that sets wrap_non_vars to true when dealing with an appendrel
member. The goal is to wrap subquery outputs that are not simple Vars
in PlaceHolderVars, ensuring that what we pull up doesn't get merged
into a surrounding expression during later processing, which could
cause it to fail to match the expression actually available from the
appendrel.
However, this is unnecessary. When pulling up an appendrel child
subquery, the only part of the upper query that could reference the
appendrel child yet is the translated_vars list of the associated
AppendRelInfo that we just made for this child. Furthermore, we do
not want to force use of PHVs in the AppendRelInfo, as there is no
outer join between. In fact, perform_pullup_replace_vars always sets
wrap_non_vars to false before performing pullup_replace_vars on the
AppendRelInfo.
This patch simply removes the code that sets wrap_non_vars to true for
UNION ALL subqueries.
