+ List information about table in a partition tree for a given

+ table itself. Information provided includes the OID of the partition,
+ the OID of its immediate parent, and its level in the hierarchy.
+ The value of level begins at 0 for the input table

+ its partitions, 2 for their partitions, and so on.
