pgsql: Harden range_table_mutator() against null RangeTblEntry.subquery

Harden range_table_mutator() against null RangeTblEntry.subquery.

Commit 64919aaab made pull_up_simple_subquery set rte->subquery = NULL
after doing the deed, so that we don't waste cycles copying a
now-useless subquery tree around.  This turns out to create a core dump
hazard in range_table_mutator, which supposes that that field is never
NULL.  Apparently none of our own code invokes query_tree_mutator or
range_table_mutator on the top Query after subquery pullup; but it
wouldn't be surprising if outside code does, and anyway I'm working
on a v16 patch that will need it.

We can fix this cleanly by just getting rid of the special-case
handling of this field and treating it more like all the rest.
I think the special case might be left over from a time when
QTW_DONT_COPY_QUERY was the default behavior, but that was eons ago.

Thanks to Dean Rasheed for review.
