Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Reduce memory used by child SpecialJoinInfo

The SpecialJoinInfo applicable to a child join is computed by
translating the same applicable to the parent join in
try_partitionwise_join(). The child SpecialJoinInfo is not needed once
the child join RelOptInfo is created and paths are added to it. Use a
local variable to hold child SpecialJoinInfo so that it doesn't need
memory allocated separately.

Also free the memory allocated to various Bitmapsets in SpecialJoinInfo.
Those are not referenced anywhere. But we do not free the memory
allocated to expression trees since those may be referenced in paths or
other objects.

Plain inner joins do not have SpecialJoinInfos associated with them.
They are crafted on the fly for parent joins. Do the same for child
joins as well.
