Hi

Not exactly narrow down, but rather get rid of wrong usage of skipping
for index scan. Since skipping for it was added later than for index
only scan I can imagine there are still blind spots, so good that you've
looked. In this particular case, when index expressions do not fully
cover those expressionse result need to be distinct on, skipping just
doesn't have enough information and should not be used. I'll add it to
the next version, thanks!
