Fix plpgsql's handling of simple expressions in scrollable cursors.

exec_save_simple_expr did not account for the possibility that
standard_planner would stick a Materialize node atop the plan
of even a simple Result, if CURSOR_OPT_SCROLL is set.  This led
to an "unexpected plan node type" error.

This is a very old bug, but it'd only be reached by declaring a
cursor for a "SELECT simple-expression" query and explicitly
marking it scrollable, which is an odd thing to do.  So the lack
of prior reports isn't too surprising.
