Switch some numeric-related functions to use soft error reporting
This commit changes some functions related to the data type numeric to
use the soft error reporting rather than a custom boolean flag (called
"have_error") that callers of these functions could rely on to bypass
the generation of ERROR reports, letting the callers do their own error
handling (timestamp, jsonpath and numeric_to_char() require them).
This results in the removal of some boilerplate code that was required
to handle both the ereport() and the "have_error" code paths bypassing
ereport(), unifying everything under the soft error reporting facility.
While on it, some duplicated error messages are removed. The function
upgraded in this commit were suffixed with "_opt_error" in their names.
They are renamed to "_safe" instead.
This change relies on
d9f7f5d32f20, that has introduced the soft error
reporting infrastructure.
