I implemented this and it does work, but it was not as straight forward
as I would have liked. To make the relationship from RTEPermissionInfo
back to RangeTblEntry I was forced to generate my own perminfoindex.

This was not hard to do but seems a bit fragile. Perhaps we need an
rteindex in RTEPermissionInfo? This would also avoid the need to scan
rangeTabls.
