Fix PGS_CONSIDER_NONPARTIAL interaction with Materialize nodes.

Commit 4020b370f214315b8c10430301898ac21658143f had the idea that it
would be a good idea to handle testing PGS_CONSIDER_NONPARTIAL within
cost_material to save callers the trouble, but that turns out not to be
a very good idea. One concern is that it makes cost_material() dependent
on the caller having initialized certain fields in the MaterialPath,
which is a bit awkward for materialize_finished_plan, which wants to use
a dummy path.

Another problem is that it can result in generated materialized nested
loops where the Materialize node is disabled, contrary to the intention
of joinpath.c's logic in match_unsorted_outer() and
consider_parallel_nestloop(), which aims to consider such paths only
when they would not need to be disabled. In the previous coding, it was
possible for the pgs_mask on the joinrel to have PGS_CONSIDER_NONPARTIAL
set, while the inner rel had the same bit clear. In that case, we'd
generate and then disable a Materialize path.

That seems wrong, so instead, pull up the logic to test the
PGS_CONSIDER_NONPARTIAL bit into joinpath.c, restoring the historical
behavior that either we don't generate a given materialized nested loop
in the first place, or we don't disable it.
