Disable run condition optimization for some WindowFuncs 94985c210 added code to detect when WindowFuncs were monotonic and allowed additional quals to be "pushed down" into the subquery to be used as WindowClause runConditions in order to short-circuit execution in nodeWindowAgg.c.
The Node representation of runConditions wasn't well selected and because we do qual pushdown before planning the subquery, the planning of the subquery could perform subquery pull-up of nested subqueries. For WindowFuncs with args, the arguments could be changed after pushing the qual down to the subquery. This was made more difficult by the fact that the code duplicated the WindowFunc inside an OpExpr to include in the WindowClauses runCondition field. This could result in duplication of subqueries and a pull-up of such a subquery could result in another initplan parameter being issued for the 2nd version of the subplan. This could result in errors such as: ERROR: WindowFunc not found in subplan target lists Here in the backbranches, we don't have the flexibility to improve the Node representation to resolve this, so instead we just disable the runCondition optimization for ntile() unless the argument is a Const, (v16 only) and likewise for count(expr) (both v15 and v16). count(*) is unaffected. All other window functions which support this optimization all take zero arguments and therefore are unaffected.
