This is an API that is used externally even though we don't make the same promises about it. Can we add `def limit: Option[Expression]` or something to `LogicalPlan`? Nodes that are 1-1 can just output the limit of their child. The default implementation can return `None`. You can then check this before inserting a limit in the optimizer to make sure that its not a duplicate.
