Heikki Linnakangas f528a5606a 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.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
