Allow 'Infinity' and '-Infinity' as input to the float4 and float8

types. Update the regression tests and the documentation to reflect
this. Remove the UNSAFE_FLOATS #ifdef.
This is only half the story: we still unconditionally reject
floating point operations that result in +/- infinity. See
recent thread on -hackers for more information.

Emit a warning when an empty string is input to the oid, float4, and

Significant improvements to the documentation for the new cost-based

idea.
