Yes, it is just an OR. But we have to introduce an OR logic in
nodeBitmapIndexscan node for stream bitmaps. We can't do what it is done
right now: scanning the underline index one key at a time. We have to scan
the underline index for all keys at the same time. It seems simply that we
just introduce another BitmapOr in the path.
