Stuff like this is usually explained somewhere in the code base, so "git
grep" is your friend. In this case it's probably good to read the
comment in src/backend/nodes/queryjumblefuncs.c which says:

 * Normalization is implemented by fingerprinting queries, selectively
 * serializing those fields of each query tree's nodes that are judged
 * to be essential to the query. This is referred to as a query jumble.

So "jumbling" is a process to generate a "normalized" query.
