Fix executor prune failure when plan already pruned

In a multi-layer partitioning setup, if at plan time all the
sub-partitions are pruned but the intermediate one remains, the executor
later throws a spurious error that there's nothing to prune.  That is
correct, but there's no reason to throw an error.  Therefore, don't.
