See also the code before 32ced2e13e75. We wanted a JumbleState in
this case to be able to generate a normalized query for the hint
table. Since this commit we only rely on the query ID in the hint
table, so it would not matter for pg_hint_plan if the JumbleState is
removed from this portions of the hooks.

Saying that, yes I think that you are right, we should be able to
remove this dependency on JumbleState in
pg_hint_plan_post_parse_analyze() and rely on the query ID. I'm
writing down a note about cleaning that on the HEAD branch of the
module..
