Install a search tree depth limit in GIN bulk-insert operations, to prevent

them from degrading badly when the input is sorted or nearly so.  In this
scenario the tree is unbalanced to the point of becoming a mere linked list,
so insertions become O(N^2).  The easiest and most safely back-patchable
solution is to stop growing the tree sooner, ie limit the growth of N.  We
might later consider a rebalancing tree algorithm, but it's not clear that
the benefit would be worth the cost and complexity.  Per report from Sergey
Burladyan and an earlier complaint from Heikki.

Back-patch to 8.2; older versions didn't have GIN indexes.
