getting rid of numerous ad-hoc versions that have popped up in various
places.  Shortens code and avoids conflict with Windows min() and max()
macros.

boxes. Change interface to user-defined GiST support methods union and

4 ltree (gist__ltree_ops opclass), intarray (gist__intbig_ops): optimize
GiST's
