Subject: crashes due to setting max_parallel_workers=0

Hi,

while working on a patch I ran into some crashes that seem to be caused 
by inconsistent handling of max_parallel_workers - queries still seem to 
be planned with parallel plans enabled, but then crash at execution.

The attached script reproduces the issue on a simple query, causing 
crashed in GatherMerge, but I assume the issue is more general.

regards
