Fix bugs with parsing signed hh:mm and hh:mm:ss fields in interval input.
DecodeInterval() failed to honor the "range" parameter (the special SQL syntax for indicating which fields appear in the literal string) if the time was signed. This seems inappropriate, so make it work like the not-signed case. The inconsistency was introduced in my commit f867339c, which as noted in its log message was only really focused on making SQL-compliant literals work per spec. Including a sign here is not per spec, but if we're going to allow it then it's reasonable to expect it to work like the not-signed case. Also, remove bogus setting of tmask, which caused subsequent processing to think that what had been given was a timezone and not an hh:mm(:ss) field, thus confusing checks for redundant fields. This seems to be an aboriginal mistake in Lockhart's commit 2cf16424. Add regression test cases to illustrate the changed behaviors. Back-patch as far as 8.4, where support for spec-compliant interval literals was added. Range problem reported and diagnosed by Amit Kapila, tmask problem by me.
