Allow trailing whitespace in parse_real(), for consistency with
parse_int() and with itself (strtod allows leading whitespace, so it
seems odd not to allow trailing whitespace). parse_bool remains
not-whitespace-friendly, but this is generically true for non-numeric
GUC variables, so I'll desist from changing it.

Provide a HINT listing the allowed unit names when a GUC variable seems to
contain a wrong unit specification, per discussion.
In passing, fix the code to avoid unnecessary integer overflows when
converting units, and to detect overflows when they do occur.

Add a caveat pointing out that constraint exclusion doesn't work with
constraints the planner is unable to disprove, hence simple btree-compatible
conditions should be used. We've seen people try to get cute with stuff
like date_part(something) = something at least twice now. Even if we
wanted to try to teach predtest.c about the properties of date_part,
most of the useful variants aren't immutable so nothing could be proved.

Restrict deadlock_timeout to the range for which the implementation
actually works sanely, viz not 0 and not more than INT_MAX/1000
(else TimestampTzPlusMilliseconds can overflow). Per discussion with
Greg Stark. Since this is a superuser-only setting and there was not
previously any big reason to change it, not worth back-patching.

Minor code cleanup: calling FreeFile() before ereport(ERROR) is not
necessary, since files opened via AllocateFile() are closed automatically

Only log 'process acquired lock' if we actually did get the lock. This
test seems inessential right now since the only control path for not
getting the lock is via CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS which won't return control
to ProcSleep, but it would be important if we ever allow the deadlock
code to kill someone else's transaction instead of our own.
