Parallel query can't handle running a query only partially rather than to completion. However, there seems to be no way to run a statement prepared via SQL PREPARE other than to completion, so we can enable it there without a problem. The situation is more complicated for the extend query protocol. libpq seems to provide no way to send an Execute message with a non-zero rowcount, but some other client might. If that happens, and a parallel plan was chosen, we'll execute the parallel plan without using any workers, which may be somewhat inefficient but should still work. Hopefully this won't be a problem; users can always set max_parallel_degree=0 to avoid choosing parallel plans in the first place. Amit Kapila, reviewed by me.
