Allow NumericOnly to be "+ FCONST".
The NumericOnly grammar production accepted ICONST, + ICONST, - ICONST,
FCONST, and - FCONST, but for some reason not + FCONST. This led to
strange inconsistencies like
regression=# set random_page_cost = +4;
SET
regression=# set random_page_cost = 4000000000;
SET
regression=# set random_page_cost = +4000000000;
ERROR: syntax error at or near "4000000000"
(because 4000000000 is too large to be an ICONST). While there's
no actual functional reason to need to write a "+", if we allow
it for integers it seems like we should allow it for numerics too.
It's been like that forever, so back-patch to all supported branches.
