Fix const-folding of JSON constructors inside a simple CASE
A JSON constructor with a RETURNING clause uses a CaseTestExpr as the
placeholder for its result in the coercion expression. When such a
constructor appears in a WHEN clause of a simple CASE whose test
expression is a constant, eval_const_expressions substituted that
constant for the placeholder, so the coercion produced the CASE's test
value instead of the constructor's result. For instance,
CASE 'x' WHEN JSON_OBJECT('a': 'b' RETURNING text) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
evaluated to 1.
To fix, keep case_val out of scope while simplifying the coercion, as
is already done for the elemexpr of an ArrayCoerceExpr.
Back-patch to v16, where the SQL/JSON constructor functions were
introduced.
