Fix example plan in optimizer/README.

Joining three tables only takes two join nodes.  I think when I (tgl)
wrote this, I was envisioning possible additional joins; but since the
example doesn't show any fourth table, it's just confusing to write
a third join node.

 so we should be willing to pass down A.AID through a join even though
 there is no join order constraint forcing the plan to look like this.
