This patch prevents several use after free bugs present in flatten_join_alias_var_optimizer. Specifically, the function uses flatten_join_alias_vars function multiple times, and assumes that the original node can be freed immediately after. This is not always the case since under some circumstances flatten_join_alias_vars does not modify its input and simply passes it through without copying. This patch adds conditions to check if the original node can safely be freed, preventing use after free.
