COMMENTS
The polynomial p(n,x) is the numerator of the rational function given by f(n,x) = 1 + n)/(2*f(n-1,x)), where f(0,x) = 1.
(Sum of numbers in row n) = A000982(n+1) for n >= 0.
Column 1 is essentially A081405.

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