Account for SRFs in targetlists in planner rowcount estimates.
We made use of the ROWS estimate for set-returning functions used in FROM,
but not for those used in SELECT targetlists; which is a bit of an
oversight considering there are common usages that require the latter
approach. Improve that. (I had initially thought it might be worth
folding this into cost_qual_eval, but after investigation concluded that
that wouldn't be very helpful, so just do it separately.) Per complaint
from David Johnston.
Back-patch to 9.2, but not further, for fear of destabilizing plan choices
in existing releases.
