pgsql: Flush Memoize cache when non-key parameters change

Flush Memoize cache when non-key parameters change

It's possible that a subplan below a Memoize node contains a parameter
from above the Memoize node.  If this parameter changes then cache entries
may become out-dated due to the new parameter value.

Previously Memoize was mistakenly not aware of this.  We fix this here by
flushing the cache whenever a parameter that's not part of the cache
key changes.

I'm currently looking into why the buildfarm does not like this.

Thanks. I missed adding keyparamids to the copy/read/write functions.

Looks like the cause of the animals that had the plan change [1][2] is
a timing issue where tenk2 is not auto-analyzed before the Memoize
test.  Due to the lack of stats, Memoize is not considered in the
planner.

I see tenk1 is manually ANALYZEd, so I'll just change the tests to use
tenk1 instead of tenk2.
