pgsql: Skip system attributes when applying mvdistinct stats

Skip system attributes when applying mvdistinct stats

When estimating number of distinct groups, we failed to ignore system
attributes when matching the group expressions to mvdistinct stats,
causing failures like

  ERROR: negative bitmapset member not allowed

Fix that by simply skipping anything that is not a regular attribute.
Backpatch to PostgreSQL 10, where the extended stats were introduced.
