+1 I think we do need a flag that can be inspected from the user
trigger function.

Also:
/pgsql/source/master/src/backend/executor/execMain.c: In function 'ExecSetupPartitionTupleRouting':
/pgsql/source/master/src/backend/executor/execMain.c:3401:18: warning: 'leaf_part_arr' may be used uninitialized in
thisfunction [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] leaf_part_rri = leaf_part_arr + i; ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think using num_update_rri==0 as a flag to indicate INSERT is strange.
I suggest passing an additional boolean -- or maybe just split the whole
function in two, one for updates and another for inserts, say
ExecSetupPartitionTupleRoutingForInsert() and
ExecSetupPartitionTupleRoutingForUpdate(). They seem to
share almost no code, and the current flow is hard to read; maybe just
add a common subroutine for the lower bottom of the loop.
