src/test/regress/expected: aggregates.out numeric.out

Log message:
Reimplement NUMERIC datatype using base-10000 arithmetic; also improve
some of the algorithms for higher functions. I see about a factor of ten
speedup on the 'numeric' regression test, but it's unlikely that that test
is representative of real-world applications.
initdb forced due to change of on-disk representation for NUMERIC.
