Fix handling of phrase operator removal while removing tsquery stopwords. 

The distance of a removed phrase operator should propagate up to a
parent phrase operator if there is one, but this only worked correctly
in left-deep trees.  Throwing in a few parentheses confused it completely,
as indeed was illustrated by bizarre results in existing regression test
cases.

To fix, track unaccounted-for distances that should propagate to the left
and to the right of the current node, rather than trying to make it work
with only one returned distance.

Also make some adjustments to behave as well as we can for cases of
intermixed phrase and regular (AND/OR) operators.  I don't think it's
possible to be 100% correct for that without a rethinking of the tsquery
representation; for example, maybe we should just not drop stopword nodes
at all underneath phrase operators.  But this is better than it was,
and changing tsquery representation wouldn't be safely back-patchable.

While at it, I simplified the API of the clean_fakeval_intree function
a bit by getting rid of the "char *result" output parameter; that wasn't
doing anything that wasn't redundant with whether the result node is
NULL or not, and testing for NULL seems a lot clearer/safer.

This is part of a larger project to fix various infelicities in the
phrase-search implementation, but this part seems comittable on its own.

Back-patch to 9.6 where phrase operators were introduced.

*
* When we remove a phrase operator due to removing one or both of its
* arguments, we might need to adjust the distance of a parent phrase
* operator. For example, 'a' is a stopword, so:
* (b <-> a) <-> c should become b <2> c
* b <-> (a <-> c) should become b <2> c
* (b <-> (a <-> a)) <-> c should become b <3> c
* b <-> ((a <-> a) <-> c) should become b <3> c
* To handle that, we define two output parameters:
* ladd: amount to add to a phrase distance to the left of this node
* radd: amount to add to a phrase distance to the right of this node
* We need two outputs because we could need to bubble up adjustments to two
* different parent phrase operators. Consider
* w <-> (((a <-> x) <2> (y <3> a)) <-> z)
* After we've removed the two a's and are considering the <2> node (which is
* now just x <2> y), we have an ladd distance of 1 that needs to propagate
* up to the topmost (leftmost) <->, and an radd distance of 3 that needs to
* propagate to the rightmost <->, so that we'll end up with
* w <2> ((x <2> y) <4> z)
* Near the bottom of the tree, we may have subtrees consisting only of
* stopwords. The distances of any phrase operators within such a subtree are
* summed and propagated to both ladd and radd, since we don't know which side
* of the lowest surviving phrase operator we are in. The rule is that any
* subtree that degenerates to NULL must return equal values of ladd and radd,
* and the parent node dealing with it should incorporate only one of those.
*
* Currently, we only implement this adjustment for adjacent phrase operators.
* Thus for example 'x <-> ((a <-> y) | z)' will become 'x <-> (y | z)', which
* isn't ideal, but there is no way to represent the really desired semantics
* without some redesign of the tsquery structure. Certainly it would not be
* any better to convert that to 'x <2> (y | z)'. Since this is such a weird
* corner case, let it go for now. But we can fix it in cases where the
* intervening non-phrase operator also gets removed, for example
* '((x <-> a) | a) <-> y' will become 'x <2> y'.
