For this I used the already present test for an existing intoClause in ExecuteQuery to set the parallelModeNeeded flag of the prepared statement. This results in a non parallel execution of the parallel plan, as we see with a non-zero fetch count used with the extended query protocol. Despite this patch seem to work in my tests, I'm by no means confident this being a proper way of handling the situation in question.

Can you once test by just passing CURSOR_OPT_PARALLEL_OK in
PrepareQuery() and run the tests by having forc_parallel_mode=regress?
It seems to me that the code in the planner is changed for setting a
parallelModeNeeded flag, so it might work as it is.
