I was looking into the latest patch set, seems like we can reuse some

+ if (strategy == BTLessStrategyNumber)
+ need_next_max = false;

I think the above logic is common between this patch and the runtime
pruning.  I think we can make
a reusable function.  Here we are preparing minkey and maxkey of Datum
because we can directly fetch rightop->constvalue whereas for runtime
pruning we are making minkeys and maxkeys of Expr because during
planning time we don't have the values for the Param.  I think we can
always make these minkey, maxkey array of Expr and later those can be
processed in whatever way we want it.  So this path will fetch the
constval out of Expr and runtime pruning will Eval that expression at
runtime.

Does this make sense or it will cause one level of extra processing
for this path i.e converting the Expr array to CONST array?
