Hi.
It seems if some childrel doesn't have valid pathlist, subpaths_valid
would be false in add_paths_to_append_rel()
and generate_orderedappend_paths() will not be called. So when we
iterate over live_childrels,
all of them will have cheapest_total path. This is why we can assert
that base_path is not NULL.
