DESCRIPTION: Adds support for pushing down LEFT/RIGHT outer joins having
a reference table in the outer side and a distributed table on the inner
side (e.g., <reference table> LEFT JOIN <distributed table>)
Partially addresses #6546
1) `<outer:reference>` LEFT JOIN `<inner:distributed>`
2) `<inner:distributed>` RIGHT JOIN `<outer:reference>`
Previously, for outer joins of types (1) and (2), the distributed side
was computed recursively. This was necessary because, when the inner
side of a recurring outer join is a distributed table, it is not
possible to directly distribute the join; the preserved (outer and
recurring) side may generate rows with join keys that hash to different
shards.
To implement distributed planning while maintaining consistency with
global execution semantics, this PR restricts the outer side only to
those partition key values that route to the selected shard during
distributed shard query computation. This method is employed )when the
following criteria are met: (recursive planning applied otherwise)
- The join type is (1) or (2) (lateral joins are not supported).
- The outer side is a reference table.
- The outer join qualifications include an equality condition between
the partition column of a distributed table and the recurring table.
- The join is not part of a chained join.
- The “enable_recurring_outer_join_pushdown” GUC is enabled (default is
on).

Changes test files in multi and multi-1 schedules such that they
accomodate coordinator in metadata.
Changes fall into the following buckets:
1. When coordinator is in metadata, reference table shards are present
in coordinator too.
This changes test outputs checking the table size, shard numbers etc.
for reference tables.
2. When coordinator is in metadata, postgres tables are converted to
citus local tables whenever a foreign key relationship to them is
created. This changes some test cases which tests it should not be
possible to create foreign keys to postgres tables.
3. Remove lines that add/remove coordinator for testing purposes.
Recursive planner should handle all the tree from bottom to top at
single pass. i.e. It should have already recursively planned all
required parts in its first pass. Otherwise, this means we have bug at
recursive planner, which needs to be handled. We add a check here and
return error.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes wrong results by throwing error in case recursive
planner multipass the query.
We found 3 different cases which causes recursive planner passes the
query multiple times.
1. Sublink in WHERE clause is planned at second pass after we
recursively planned a distributed table at the first pass. Fixed by PR
#6657.
2. Local-distributed joins are recursively planned at both the first and
the second pass. Issue #6659.
3. Some parts of the query is considered to be noncolocated at the
second pass as we do not generate attribute equivalances between
nondistributed and distributed tables. Issue #6653
