On first glance, that looks pretty good. I'll have a deeper look
tomorrow. It strikes me that if PartitionTupleRoutingInfo is an
executor structure, we should probably (as a separate patch) relocate
FormPartitionKeyDatum and get_partition_for_tuple to someplace in
src/backend/executor and rename the accordingly; maybe it's time for
an execPartition.c? catalog/partition.c is getting really bug, so
it's not a bad thing if some of that stuff gets moved elsewhere. A
lingering question in my mind, though, is whether it's really correct
to think of PartitionTupleRoutingInfo as executor-specific. Maybe
we're going to need that for other things too?
