Stop btree indexscans upon reaching nulls in either direction.
The existing scan-direction-sensitive tests were overly complex, and failed to stop the scan in cases where it's perfectly legitimate to do so. Per bug #6278 from Maksym Boguk. Back-patch to 8.3, which is as far back as the patch applies easily. Doesn't seem worth sweating over a relatively minor performance issue in 8.2 at this late date. (But note that this was a performance regression from 8.1 and before, so 8.2 is being left as an outlier.)
