Fix optimization hazard in gram.y's makeOrderedSetArgs(), redux.
It appears that commit cf63c641c, which intended to prevent misoptimization of the result-building step in makeOrderedSetArgs, didn't go far enough: buildfarm member hornet's version of xlc is now optimizing back to the old, broken behavior in which list_length(directargs) is fetched only after list_concat() has changed that value. I'm not entirely convinced whether that's an undeniable compiler bug or whether it can be justified by a sufficiently aggressive interpretation of C sequence points. So let's just change the code to make it harder to misinterpret. Back-patch to all supported versions, just in case. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1830491.1601944935@sss.pgh.pa.us
