During join search, a joinrel should be comptible between local
joins and remote joins, of course target list also should be
so. So it is quite difficult to add wholerow resjunk for joinrels
before whole join tree is completed even if we allow row marks
that are not bound to base RTEs.

Suppose ROW_MARK_COPY is in use, and suppose the query is: SELECT
ft1.a, ft1.b, ft2.a, ft2.b FROM ft1, ft2 WHERE ft1.x = ft2.x;

When the foreign join is executed, there's going to be a slot that
needs to be populated with ft1.a, ft1.b, ft2.a, ft2.b, and a whole row
reference. Now, let's suppose the slot descriptor has 5 columns: those
4, plus a whole-row reference for ROW_MARK_COPY.

IIUC, I think that if ROW_MARK_COPY is in use, the descriptor would have 6 columns: those 4, plus a whole-row var for ft1 and another whole-row bar for ft2. Maybe I'm missing something, though.

4, plus a whole-row reference for ROW_MARK_COPY.  If we know what
values we're going to store in columns 1..4, couldn't we just form
them into a tuple to populate column 5? We don't actually need to be
able to fetch such a tuple from the remote side because we can just
construct it.  I think.

I also was thinking whether we could replace one of the whole-row vars with a whole-row var that represents the scan slot of the ForeignScanState node.
