Fix pg_overexplain to emit valid output with RANGE_TABLE option.
overexplain_range_table() emitted the "Unprunable RTIs" and "Result
RTIs" properties before closing the "Range Table" group. In the JSON
and YAML formats the Range Table group is rendered as an array of RTE
objects, so emitting key/value pairs inside it produced structurally
invalid output. The XML format had a related oddity, with these
elements nested inside <Range-Table> rather than appearing as its
siblings.
These fields are properties of the PlannedStmt as a whole, not of any
individual RTE, so close the Range Table group before emitting them.
They now appear as siblings of "Range Table" in the parent Query
object, which is what was intended.
Also add a test exercising FORMAT JSON with RANGE_TABLE so that any
future regression in the output structure is caught.
