Fix pull_varnos to cope with translated PlaceHolderVars.

Commit 55dc86eca changed pull_varnos to use (if possible) the associated
ph_eval_at for a PlaceHolderVar. I missed a fine point though: we might
be looking at a PHV in the quals or tlist of a child appendrel, in which
case we need to compute a ph_eval_at value that's been translated in the
same way that the PHV itself has been (cf. adjust_appendrel_attrs).
Fortunately, enough info is available in the PlaceHolderInfo to make
such translation possible without additional outside data, so we don't
need another round of uglification of planner APIs. This is a little
bit complicated, but since it's a hard-to-hit corner case, I'm not much
worried about adding cycles here.

Per report from Jaime Casanova. Back-patch to v12, like the previous
commit.
