Jeff Davis 2be355498e Fix daterange canonicalization for +/- infinity.
The values 'infinity' and '-infinity' are a part of the DATE type
itself, so a bound of the date 'infinity' is not the same as an
unbounded/infinite range. However, it is still wrong to try to
canonicalize such values, because adding or subtracting one has no
effect. Fix by treating 'infinity' and '-infinity' the same as
unbounded ranges for the purposes of canonicalization (but not other
purposes).

Backpatch to all versions because it is inconsistent with the
documented behavior. Note that this could be an incompatibility for
applications relying on the behavior contrary to the documentation.

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:

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/.
