f4f5845b31 Quick adaption of JIT tuple deforming to the fast default patch.
Instead using memset to set tts_isnull, call the new
slot_getmissingattrs().

Also fix a bug (= instead of >=) in the code generation. Normally = is
correct, but when repeatedly deforming fields not in a
tuple (e.g. deform up to natts + 1 and then natts + 2) >= is needed.

32af96b2b1 JIT tuple deforming in LLVM JIT provider.
Performing JIT compilation for deforming gains performance benefits
over unJITed deforming from compile-time knowledge of the tuple
descriptor. Fixed column widths, NOT NULLness, etc can be taken
advantage of.

Right now the JITed deforming is only used when deforming tuples as
part of expression evaluation (and obviously only if the descriptor is
known). It's likely to be beneficial in other cases, too.

By default tuple deforming is JITed whenever an expression is JIT
compiled. There's a separate boolean GUC controlling it, but that's
expected to be primarily useful for development and benchmarking.

Docs will follow in a later commit containing docs for the whole JIT
feature.
