Fix hypothetical problem passing the wrong GROUP BY pathkeys
1349d27 changed things to make the planner request that the
query_pathkeys contain pathkeys for any ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates.
Some code added prior to that commit in db0d67d made it so the order
that the pathkeys appear in the group_pathkeys could be changed so that
the GROUP BY could be executed in a more optimal order which minimized
sort comparisons. 1349d27 had to make sure that the pathkeys for any
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates remained at the end of the groupby_pathkeys
and wasn't reordered, so some code was added to
add_paths_to_grouping_rel() to first strip off any pathkeys belonging to
ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates before passing to the function to optimize
the order of the group_pathkeys.
It seems I dropped the ball in 1349d27 and mistakenly used the untouched
PlannerInfo.group_pathkeys to pass to get_useful_group_keys_orderings()
instead of the version that had the aggregate pathkeys removed. It was
only the code path that was handling creating paths for
partially_grouped_rel which made this mistake. In practice, we'll never
have any extra pathkeys to strip off when processing
partially_grouped_rel as that's only used when considering partial
paths, which we never do when there are ORDER BY / DISTINCT aggregates.
So this is just a hypothetical bug, not a live bug. We already have the
correct pathkeys determined, so it's of no extra cost to pass the
correct variable.
