Fix integer overflow in array_agg(), when the array grows too large

If you accumulate many arrays full of NULLs, you could overflow
'nitems', before reaching the MaxAllocSize limit on the allocations.
Add an explicit check that the number of items doesn't grow too large.
With more than MaxArraySize items, getting the final result with
makeArrayResultArr() would fail anyway, so better to error out early.
