_edit_attachments_query_helper does not properly preface table name when querying unattached media

Description

If a plugin modifies the media list on upload.php by joining wp_posts on itself (for example, to filter attachments which are children of a certain post type), MySQL throws an error when querying for unattached files because post_parent < 1 in _edit_attachments_query_helper is ambiguous without prefacing the table name (because of the join). All other columns in the query are explicitly named.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Hook into posts_join_paged on upload.php and join wp_posts on itself ( e.g., JOIN wp_posts wp_posts2 ON wp_posts2.post_parent = wp_posts.ID)
  2. Navigate to media upload and query for unattached media
  3. Receive an error that post_parent is ambiguous
