The executor flags were not handled entirely correctly, although the
bugs were mostly harmless and it was mostly comment inaccuracy. We don't
need to strip any of the flags for child nodes.
Incremental sort does not support backward scans of mark/restore, so
MARK/BACKWARDS flags should not be possible. So we simply ensure this
using an assert, and we don't bother removing them when initializing
the child node.
With REWIND it's a bit less clear - incremental sort does not support
REWIND, but there is no way to signal this - it's legal to just ignore
the flag. We however continue passing the flag to child nodes, because
they might be useful to leverage that.
