     * considerations.
     *
     * A word about is_pushed_down: we mark the qual as "pushed down" if
     * it is (potentially) applicable at a level different from its original
     * syntactic level.  This flag is used to distinguish OUTER JOIN ON quals
     * from other quals pushed down to the same joinrel.  The rules are:
     *        WHERE quals and INNER JOIN quals: is_pushed_down = true.
     *        Non-degenerate OUTER JOIN quals: is_pushed_down = false.
     *        Degenerate OUTER JOIN quals: is_pushed_down = true.
     * A "degenerate" OUTER JOIN qual is one that doesn't mention the
     * non-nullable side, and hence can be pushed down into the nullable side
     * without changing the join result.  It is correct to treat it as a
     * regular filter condition at the level where it is evaluated.
     *
     * Note: it is not immediately obvious that a simple boolean is enough
     * for this: if for some reason we were to attach a degenerate qual to
     * its original join level, it would need to be treated as an outer join
     * qual there.    However, this cannot happen, because all the rels the
     * clause mentions must be in the outer join's min_righthand, therefore
     * the join it needs must be formed before the outer join; and we always
     * attach quals to the lowest level where they can be evaluated.  But
     * if we were ever to re-introduce a mechanism for delaying evaluation
     * of "expensive" quals, this area would need work.
