pgsql: Prevent corr() from returning the wrong results for negative

-----------
Prevent corr() from returning the wrong results for negative correlation
values. The previous coding essentially assumed that x = sqrt(x*x), which
does not hold for x < 0.

Thanks to Jie Zhang at Greenplum and Gavin Sherry for reporting this
issue.
