I've gone ahead and at least removed the withCheckOptions empty-list
from being written out as part of Query for 9.5 and HEAD, and bumped
catversion accordingly.
I came to realize that ModifyTable actually is planned to be used for
parallel query and therefore the list for that needs to stay, along with
support for reading the WithCheckOption node in.
