David Rowley 1c19e28639 Fix incorrect partition pruning logic for boolean partitioned tables
The partition pruning logic assumed that "b IS NOT true" was exactly the
same as "b IS FALSE".  This is not the case when considering NULL values.
Fix this so we correctly include any partition which could hold NULL
values for the NOT case.

Additionally, this fixes a bug in the partition pruning code which handles
partitioned tables partitioned like ((NOT boolcol)).  This is a seemingly
unlikely schema design, and it was untested and also broken.

Here we add tests for the ((NOT boolcol)) case and insert some actual data
into those tables and verify we do get the correct rows back when running
queries.  I've also adjusted the existing boolpart tests to include some
data and verify we get the correct results too.

Both the bugs being fixed here could lead to incorrect query results with
fewer rows being returned than expected.  No additional rows could have
been returned accidentally.

In passing, remove needless ternary expression.  It's more simple just to
pass !is_not_clause to makeBoolConst().  It makes sense to do this so the
code is consistent with the bug fix in the "else if" condition just below.

David Kimura did submit a patch to fix the first of the issues here, but
that's not what's being committed here.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
