COMMENTS
The polynomial p(n,x) is the numerator of the rational function given by f(n,x) = 1 + (x + 2)/f(n-1,x), where f(0,x) = 1.
(Sum of numbers in row n) = A006130(n+1) for n >= 0.
(Column 1) is essentially A001045.

EXAMPLE
f(0,x) = 1/1, so that p(0,x) = 1
f(1,x) = (3 + x)/1, so that p(1,x) = 3 + x;
f(2,x) = (5 + 2 x)/(3 + x), so that p(2,x) = 5 + 2 x.
