Hmm.  If we're going this way, then shouldn't we revert the changes
commit 2c09a5c12a66087218c7f8cba269cd3de51b9b82 made to
ExecParallelRetrieveInstrumentation?  If that function is only ever
called once, then there's no point doing InstrInit + InstrAgg node, or
checking whether worker_instrument is already initialized.  We can
just palloc + memcpy as the code did previously.

I think.
