Fix filtering of "cloned" outer-join quals some more.
We've had multiple issues with the clause_is_computable_at logic that I introduced in 2489d76c4: it's been known to accept more than one clone of the same qual at the same plan node, and also to accept no clones at all. It's looking impractical to get it 100% right on the basis of the currently-stored information, so fix it by introducing a new RestrictInfo field "incompatible_relids" that explicitly shows which outer joins a given clone mustn't be pushed above. In principle we could populate this field in every RestrictInfo, but that would cost space and there doesn't presently seem to be a need for it in general. Also, while deconstruct_distribute_oj_quals can easily fill the field with the remaining members of the commutative join set that it's considering, computing it in the general case seems again pretty complicated. So for now, just fill it for clone quals. Along the way, fix a bug that may or may not be only latent: equivclass.c was generating replacement clauses with is_pushed_down and has_clone/is_clone markings that didn't match their required_relids. This led me to conclude that leaving the clone flags out of make_restrictinfo's purview wasn't such a great idea after all, so add them. Per report from Richard Guo.
