Further selectivity-estimation work. Speed up eqsel()

Browse Source 
(it should just call the given operator, not look up an = operator).
Fix intltsel() so that all numeric data types are converted to double
before trying to estimate where the given comparison value is in the
known range of column values.  intltsel() still needs work, or replacement,
for non-numeric data types ... but for nonintegral numeric types it
should now be delivering reasonable estimates.
