Speed up SUM calculation in numeric aggregates.

This introduces a numeric sum accumulator, which performs better than repeatedly calling add_var(). The performance comes from using wider digits and delaying carry propagation, tallying positive and negative values separately, and avoiding a round of palloc/pfree on every value. This speeds up SUM(), as well as other standard aggregates like AVG() and STDDEV() that also calculate a sum internally.
