I strive to remove those extra parentheses when I edit some part of the
code (though I may forget at times), but leave them alone from other
places that I'm not editing.  I don't add them in new code.  Most
likely, this is why ATExecSetNotNull has some cases with them and other
cases without.

Given sufficient time, the Postgres of Theseus would eventually have
zero of those extra parens.
