Thanks for the patch. I did some review of the patch (needs a rebase).
Below are my comments.

Both MakeTupleTableSlot() and ExecStoreTuple() can be inside the (map
!= NULL) if condition.
This also applies for similar changes in ExecConstraints() and
ExecWithCheckOptions().

Instead of doing the above, I think we can collect those slots in
estate->es_tupleTable using ExecInitExtraTupleSlot() so that they
don't have to be explicitly dropped in ExecCleanupTupleRouting(). And
also then we won't require the new field
proute->partition_tuple_slots_alloced.
