Further tweaking of parsetree & plantree representation of SubLinks.

Simplify SubLink by storing just a List of operator OIDs, instead of
a list of incomplete OpExprs --- that was a bizarre and bulky choice,
with no redeeming social value since we have to build new OpExprs
anyway when forming the plan tree.
