And I still don't want it. We are NOT going in the direction of adding
an enable_ knob for every single planner activity --- do you have the
faintest idea how many there would be? We have such knobs for a small
number of cases where it's arguable that the action might be the wrong
thing for a particular query. Join removal, if applicable, can't
possibly be the wrong choice; it's better than every other join strategy.
