Don't generate fake "*SELECT*" or "*SELECT* %d" subquery aliases.
rte->alias should point only to a user-written alias, but in these
cases that principle was violated. Fixing this causes some regression
test output changes: wherever rte->alias previously had a value and
is now NULL, rte->eref is now set to a generated name rather than to
rte->alias; and the scheme used to generate eref names differs from
what we were doing for aliases.
The upshot is that instead of "*SELECT*" or "*SELECT* %d",
EXPLAIN will now emit "unnamed_subquery" or "unnamed_subquery_%d".
But that's a reasonable descriptor, and we were already producing
that in yet other cases, so this seems not too objectionable.
