    Fix assorted oversights in range selectivity estimation. · 3d660d33

    calc_rangesel() failed outright when comparing range variables to empty
    constant ranges with < or >=, as a result of missing cases in a switch.
    It also produced a bogus estimate for > comparison to an empty range.
    
    On top of that, the >= and > cases were mislabeled throughout.  For
    nonempty constant ranges, they managed to produce the right answers
    anyway as a result of counterbalancing typos.
    
    Also, default_range_selectivity() omitted cases for elem <@ range,
    range &< range, and range &> range, so that rather dubious defaults
    were applied for these operators.
    
    In passing, rearrange the code in rangesel() so that the elem <@ range
    case is handled in a less opaque fashion.
