Fix nested PlaceHolderVar expressions that appear only in targetlists.
A PlaceHolderVar's expression might contain another, lower-level PlaceHolderVar. If the outer PlaceHolderVar is used, the inner one certainly will be also, and so we have to make sure that both of them get into the placeholder_list with correct ph_may_need values during the initial pre-scan of the query (before deconstruct_jointree starts). We did this correctly for PlaceHolderVars appearing in the query quals, but overlooked the issue for those appearing in the top-level targetlist; with the result that nested placeholders referenced only in the targetlist did not work correctly, as illustrated in bug #6154. While at it, add some error checking to find_placeholder_info to ensure that we don't try to create new placeholders after it's too late to do so; they have to all be created before deconstruct_jointree starts. Back-patch to 8.4 where the PlaceHolderVar mechanism was introduced.
