Interestingly, FIRST, LAST, LAG and LEAD are absent from the spec but
everyone I've spoken to has said they're close to being the most useful
:-). So, I'm aiming to do those as well.
Implemenenting the actual functions is trivial compared to implementing
the window construct in the executor (and planner).
