Tom Lane 33dd9bb3b0 Fix behavior of float aggregates for single Inf or NaN inputs.
When there is just one non-null input value, and it is infinity or NaN,
aggregates such as stddev_pop and covar_pop should produce a NaN
result, because the calculation is not well-defined.  They used to do
so, but since we adopted Youngs-Cramer aggregation in commit e954a727f,
they produced zero instead.  That's an oversight, so fix it.  Add tests
exercising these edge cases.

Affected aggregates are

 var_pop(double precision)
 stddev_pop(double precision)
 var_pop(real)
 stddev_pop(real)
 regr_sxx(double precision,double precision)
 regr_syy(double precision,double precision)
 regr_sxy(double precision,double precision)
 regr_r2(double precision,double precision)
 regr_slope(double precision,double precision)
 regr_intercept(double precision,double precision)
 covar_pop(double precision,double precision)
 corr(double precision,double precision)

Back-patch to v12 where the behavior change was accidentally introduced.

Report and patch by me; thanks to Dean Rasheed for review.
