This is scan qualifier.

If all the function (or function on behalf of operator) are
available to transform GPU source code. Please see codegen.c.

If Scan path has any scan qualifier, its cost to evaluate depends on
the device type. PG-Strom assumes GPU has larger startup cost but
less cost per tuple. So, GpuScan path is tend to be choosen if number
of rows are relatively large.
