Invent min_parallel_relation_size GUC to replace a hard-wired constant.
The main point of doing this is to allow the cutoff to be set very small, even zero, to allow parallel-query behavior to be tested on relatively small tables such as we typically use in the regression tests. But it might be of use to users too. The number-of-workers scaling behavior in create_plain_partial_paths() is pretty ad-hoc and subject to change, so we won't expose anything about that, but the notion of not considering parallel query at all for tables below size X seems reasonably stable.
