Richard Guo a1a9120c79 Ignore nullingrels when looking up statistics
When looking up statistical data about an expression, we do not need
to concern ourselves with the outer joins that could null the
Vars/PHVs contained in the expression.  Accounting for nullingrels in
the expression could cause estimate_num_groups to count the same Var
multiple times if it's marked with different nullingrels.  This is
incorrect, and could lead to "ERROR:  corrupt MVNDistinct entry" when
searching for multivariate n-distinct.

Furthermore, the nullingrels could prevent us from matching an
expression to expressional index columns or to the expressions in
extended statistics, leading to inaccurate estimates.

To fix, strip out all the nullingrels from the expression before we
look up statistical data about it.  There is one ensuing plan change
in the regression tests, but it looks reasonable and does not
compromise its original purpose.

This patch could result in plan changes, but it fixes an actual bug,
so back-patch to v16 where the outer-join-aware-Var infrastructure was
introduced.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
