Why do we need to introduce PARTITION_RANGE_DATUM_DEFAULT at all?  It
seems to me that the handling of default range partitions ought to be
similar to the way a null-accepting list partition is handled -
namely, it wouldn't show up in the "datums" or "kind" array at all,
instead just showing up in PartitionBoundInfoData's default_index
field.
