Add overflow checks to int4 and int8 versions of generate_series(). The previous code went into an infinite loop after overflow. In fact, an overflow is not really an error; it just means that the current value is the last one we need to return. So, just arrange to stop immediately when overflow is detected.
Back-patch all the way.
