Here is a patch to fix a bug in handling default values in reloptions.
This fix should be applied to HEAD and 8.4.0.
I used 'magic number -1' to propagate "not-specified" information to
autovacuum process. It might look strange because the default value is
out of range of the reloption, but I think it has less impact to the
codes comapred with other solutions (dynamic default values etc.).
