Improve nbtree unsatisfiable RowCompare detection.
Move nbtree's detection of RowCompare quals that are unsatisfiable due
to having a NULL in their first row element: rather than detecting these
cases at the point where _bt_first builds its insertion scan key, do so
earlier, during preprocessing proper. This brings the RowCompare case
in line every other case involving an unsatisfiable-due-to-NULL qual.
nbtree now consistently detects such unsatisfiable quals -- even when
they happen to involve a key that isn't examined by _bt_first at all.
Affected cases thereby avoid useless full index scans that cannot
possibly return any matching rows.
