Make the overflow guards in ExecChooseHashTableSize be more protective.
The original coding ensured nbuckets and nbatch didn't exceed INT_MAX, which while not insane on its own terms did nothing to protect subsequent code like "palloc(nbatch * sizeof(BufFile *))". Since enormous join size estimates might well be planner error rather than reality, it seems best to constrain the initial sizes to be not more than work_mem/sizeof(pointer), thus ensuring the allocated arrays don't exceed work_mem. We will allow nbatch to get bigger than that during subsequent ExecHashIncreaseNumBatches calls, but we should still guard against integer overflow in those palloc requests. Per bug #5145 from Bernt Marius Johnsen. Although the given test case only seems to fail back to 8.2, previous releases have variants of this issue, so patch all supported branches.
