Doc: add some commentary about ExecutorRun's NoMovement special case.

Robert Haas expressed concern about whether commit 3eea7a0c9 exposed
the parallel-execution machinery to a case it isn't tested for, namely
a second non-parallel execution of a plan after a parallel execution.
Investigation shows that that can't happen because of pquery.c's
manipulation of the scan direction, but it sure wasn't obvious to
start with.  Add some commentary about that.
