Heikki Linnakangas c3e36a9a5f Fix int32 overflow in ltree_compare()
The expression (len_diff * 10 * (an + 1)) used as the return value of
ltree_compare() is computed at int32 width.  With LTREE_MAX_LEVELS =
65535, the product can exceed INT32_MAX once an ltree has more than
~14,653 levels, which causes the result to wrap and invert its sign.
That corrupts btree ordering as well as the "magnitude" consumed by
ltree_penalty() for GiST page splits.

To fix, split ltree_compare() into two functions.  The new
ltree_compare_distance() function returns a float, which won't
overflow.  It's used by the ltree_penalty() caller.  All the other
callers only care about the sign of the return value, i.e. which of
the arguments is greater, so change ltree_compare() to not multiply
the result with (10 * (an + 1)), which avoids the overflow for those
callers.

Existing btree or GiST indexes on ltree columns containing values with
more than ~14,653 levels may be corrupt and should be REINDEXed.

Add a regression test based on the reporter's PoC.
