Fix bug in brin_minmax_multi_union

When calling sort_expanded_ranges() we need to remember the return
value, because the function sorts and also deduplicates the ranges. So
the number of ranges may decrease. brin_minmax_multi_union failed to do
that, which resulted in crashes due to bogus ranges (equal minval/maxval
but not marked as compacted).
