Oops, that’s right.  Attached is the revised version.  I chose fully qualified name, schema.relname [alias] for the
output. It would waste some cycles during planning if that is not for EXPLAIN, but it seems difficult to get a list of
nameof relations in ExplainForeignScan() phase, because planning information has gone away at that time.
