Log Message:
-----------
Teach tuplestore.c to throw away data before the "mark" point when the caller
is using mark/restore but not rewind or backward-scan capability. Insert a
materialize plan node between a mergejoin and its inner child if the inner
child is a sort that is expected to spill to disk. The materialize shields
the sort from the need to do mark/restore and thereby allows it to perform
its final merge pass on-the-fly; while the materialize itself is normally
cheap since it won't spill to disk unless the number of tuples with equal
key values exceeds work_mem.
