Controls if the query planner will produce a plan which will provide

a child node of the plan, such as an index scan. When disabled, the
query planner will produce a plan with <literal>GROUP BY</literal>
keys only sorted to match the <literal>ORDER BY</literal> clause,
if any. When enabled, the planner will try to produce a more
efficient plan. The default value is <literal>on</literal>.
