Hi Tsunakawa-san,

This was a change made deliberately.  Do you see a problem?

commit f0f13a3a08b2757997410f3a1c38bdc22973c525

    Fix estimates for ModifyTable paths without RETURNING.

    In the past, we always estimated that a ModifyTable node would emit the
    same number of rows as its subpaths.  Without a RETURNING clause, the
    correct estimate is zero.  Fix, in preparation for a proposed parallel
    write patch that is sensitive to that number.

    A remaining problem is that for RETURNING queries, the estimated width
    is based on subpath output rather than the RETURNING tlist.
