Hmm, I disagree.  It should be the job of
ExecParallelRetrieveInstrumentation to allocate its data in the
correct context, not the responsibility of nodeGather.c to work around
the fact that it doesn't.  The worker instrumentation should be
allocated in the same context as the regular instrumentation
information, which I assume is probably the per-query context.
