Thanks for informing Amit.

As Thomas mentioned upthread, the above commit already uses a tuple
conversion mapping from leaf partition to root partitioned table
(mt_transition_tupconv_maps), which serves the same purpose as that of
the mapping used in the update-partition-key patch during update tuple
routing (mt_resultrel_maps).

We need to try to merge these two into a general-purpose mapping array
such as mt_leaf_root_maps. I haven't done that in the rebased patch
(attached), so currently it has both these mapping fields.

For transition tables, this map is per-leaf-partition in case of
inserts, whereas it is per-subplan result rel for updates. For
update-tuple routing, the mapping is required to be per-subplan. Now,
for update-row-movement in presence of transition tables, we would
require both per-subplan mapping as well as per-leaf-partition
mapping, which can't be done if we have a single mapping field, unless
we have some way to identify which of the per-leaf partition mapping
elements belong to per-subplan rels.

So, it's not immediately possible to merge them.
