Make int64_div_fast_to_numeric() more robust.
The prior coding of int64_div_fast_to_numeric() had a number of bugs
that would cause it to fail under different circumstances, such as
with log10val2 <= 0, or log10val2 a multiple of 4, or in the "slow"
numeric path with log10val2 >= 10.
None of those could be triggered by any of our current code, which
only uses log10val2 = 3 or 6. However, they made it a hazard for any
future code that might use it. Also, since this is exported by
numeric.c, users writing their own C code might choose to use it.
Therefore fix, and back-patch to v14, where it was introduced.
