This is possible now by creating an operator class with reversed sort
operators. One complexity is that NULLs would then appear at the start
of the result set, and this might affect certain sort types, like
merge join.
* Allow constraint_exclusion to work for UNIONs like it does for
inheritance, allow it to work for UPDATE and DELETE statements, and allow
it to be used for all statements with little performance impact
