Review Comment:
   > Is there a specific use case / reason for using the last supported 
udlp_unparser? They can be dynamically registered and the last one should 
override perviously registered.

   Actually, I don't have a real case for it but yes, I imagined the user can 
append the new unparser to override the previous. 
   However, I guess it could be a rare use case (?
   
   > As a user, I would expect to get the result from the first udlp_unparser 
that supports this node and stop checking the remaining udlp_unparsers instead.

   Maybe you guys are right. We should make the first one win. It's more 
efficient and simpler. 
   It's also how `ExprPlanner` worked in the planner.

   Anyway, I'll change it. Thanks!
