Teach predtest.c about CHECK clauses to fix partitioning bugs.

In a CHECK clause, a null result means true, whereas in a WHERE clause
it means false.  predtest.c provided different functions depending on
which set of semantics applied to the predicate being proved, but had
no option to control what a null meant in the clauses provided as
axioms.  Add one.

Use that in the partitioning code when figuring out whether the
validation scan on a new partition can be skipped.  Rip out the
old logic that attempted (not very successfully) to compensate
for the absence of the necessary support in predtest.c.

Ashutosh Bapat and Robert Haas, reviewed by Amit Langote and
incorporating feedback from Tom Lane.
