/*
 * process_duplicate_ors
 *	  Given a list of exprs which are ORed together, try to apply
 *	  the inverse OR distributive law.
 *
 * Returns the resulting expression (could be an AND clause, an OR
 * clause, or maybe even a single subexpression).
 */

/*
 * 假设我们有四个表,分别是TEST_A,TEST_B,TEST_C,TEST_D,每个表有一列分别是A,B,C,D,
 * 也就是TEST_A有一个A列,TEST_B有一个B列,以此类推。
 * 
 * 这个函数处理这种情况,对于一个选择,SELECT * FROM TEST_A,TEST_B,TEST_C,TEST_D
 * WHERE (A=1 AND B=1) OR (A=1 AND C=1) OR (A=1 AND D=1);
 * 
 * 语句中的WHERE条件:
 *		(A=1 AND B=1) OR (A=1 AND C=1) OR (A=1 AND D=1)
 * 可以改写为:
 *		(A=1)AND (B=1 OR C=1 OR D=1)
 * 这就是这个函数的主要功能。
 *
 * 这个函数的参数是一个list, 对于上述的WHERE条件,orlist的结构如下:
 * orlist中有一个元素,是OR_EXPR类型的BoolExpr,BoolExpr中的结构如下:
typedef struct BoolExpr
{
	Expr xpr; = 略
	BoolExprType boolop; = OR_EXPR
	List *args;	= OR中的3个条件,即(A=1 AND B=1) OR (A=1 AND C=1) OR (A=1 AND D=1)
	bool plusFlag; = 略
} BoolExpr;
 *
 * 下面分析函数的具体实现,大致的步骤为:
 * 1)分析每个OR中的公共项, 2)提取公共项, 3)合并剩余项为AND。

	 * 即在(A=1 AND B=1)中查找是否存在A=1这个公共项,发现是存在的(list_member),
	 * 则依次判断内层循环的第二个子句...
	 *
	 * 如上例,具体来说,这些循环分别作的操作是:
	 *	外层第一次:
	 *		判断A=1是否在(A=1 AND B=1),在,判断下一个
	 *		判断A=1是否在(A=1 AND C=1),在,判断下一个
	 *		判断A=1是否在(A=1 AND D=1),在,A=1是公共项,记录(winners = lappend...)
	 *	外层第二次:
	 *		判断B=1是否在(A=1 AND B=1),在,判断下一个
	 *		判断B=1是否在(A=1 AND C=1),不在,跳出循环,下一个不用判断了。
	 *		判断B=1是否在(A=1 AND D=1),未执行,因为上一个不含公共项,就不可能提取了。
