Andres Freund 0976c4ddd4 Make new regression indpendent of max_parallel_workers_per_gather.
The tests in e2f1eb0ee3 ("Implement partition-wise
grouping/aggregation.") weren't independent of the server's
max_parallel_workers_per_gather setting.  I (Andres) find it useful to
locally run with that disabled, and the aforementioned patch broke
this.

Robert Haas e2f1eb0ee3 Implement partition-wise grouping/aggregation.
If the partition keys of input relation are part of the GROUP BY
clause, all the rows belonging to a given group come from a single
partition.  This allows aggregation/grouping over a partitioned
relation to be broken down * into aggregation/grouping on each
partition.  This should be no worse, and often better, than the normal
approach.

If the GROUP BY clause does not contain all the partition keys, we can
still perform partial aggregation for each partition and then finalize
aggregation after appending the partial results.  This is less certain
to be a win, but it's still useful.
