workers.
Allowing window function calculation in workers leads to inconsistent
results because if the input row ordering is not fully deterministic, the
output of window functions might vary across workers. The fix is to treat
them as parallel-restricted.
In the passing, improve the coding pattern in max_parallel_hazard_walker
so that it has a chain of mutually-exclusive if ... else if ... else if
... else if ... IsA tests.
