Fix handling Inf and Nan values in GiST pairing heap comparator

Previously plain float comparison was used in GiST pairing heap.  Such
comparison doesn't provide proper ordering for value sets containing Inf and Nan
values.  This commit fixes that by usage of float8_cmp_internal().  Note, there
is remaining problem with NULL distances, which are represented as Inf in
pairing heap.  It would be fixes in subsequent commit.

Backpatch to all supported versions.
