Disallow NaN as a value for floating-point GUCs.

None of the code that uses GUC values is really prepared for them to
hold NaN, but parse_real() didn't have any defense against accepting
such a value.  Treat it the same as a syntax error.

I haven't attempted to analyze the exact consequences of setting any
of the float GUCs to NaN, but since they're quite unlikely to be good,
this seems like a back-patchable bug fix.

Note: we don't need an explicit test for +-Infinity because those will
be rejected by existing range checks.  I added a regression test for
that in HEAD, but not older branches because the spelling of the value
in the error message will be platform-dependent in branches where we
don't always use port/snprintf.c.
