Tom Lane 955b3e0f92 Allow CustomScan providers to say whether they support projections.
Previously, all CustomScan providers had to support projections,
but there may be cases where this is inconvenient.  Add a flag
bit to say if it's supported.

Important item for the release notes: this is non-backwards-compatible
since the default is now to assume that CustomScan providers can't
project, instead of assuming that they can.  It's fail-soft, but could
result in visible performance penalties due to adding unnecessary
Result nodes.

Sven Klemm, reviewed by Aleksander Alekseev; some cosmetic fiddling
by me.
