Under interval_ops, some equal values are distinguishable. One such pair is '24:00:00' and '1 day'. With that being so, btequalimage() breaches the documented contract for the "equalimage" btree support function. This can cause incorrect results from index-only scans. Users should REINDEX any btree indexes having interval-type columns. After updating, pg_amcheck will report an error for almost all such indexes. This fix makes interval_ops simply omit the support function, like numeric_ops does. Back-pack to v13, where btequalimage() first appeared. In back branches, for the benefit of old catalog content, btequalimage() code will return false for type "interval". Going forward, back-branch initdb will include the catalog change.
