I divided the patch into two for convenience:

1) 0001_partition_syntax_catalog - adds commands, catalog and
partitioned table relation descriptor related WIP code

2) 0002_tuple-routing-poc - an experimental patch to test how well
binary search approach works for tuple routing in ExecInsert().

Please take a look.
