rte->alias should point only to a user-written alias, but in these cases that principle was violated. Fixing this causes some regression test output changes: wherever rte->alias previously had a value and is now NULL, rte->eref is now set to a generated name rather than to rte->alias; and the scheme used to generate eref names differs from what we were doing for aliases. The upshot is that instead of "*SELECT*" or "*SELECT* %d", EXPLAIN will now emit "unnamed_subquery" or "unnamed_subquery_%d". But that's a reasonable descriptor, and we were already producing that in yet other cases, so this seems not too objectionable.
