Fix pg_get_ruledef() so that negative numeric constants are parenthesized.

This is needed because :: casting binds more tightly than minus, so for
example -1::integer is not the same as (-1)::integer, and there are cases
where the difference is important.  In particular this caused a failure
in SELECT DISTINCT ... ORDER BY ... where expressions that should have
matched were seen as different by the parser; but I suspect that there
could be other cases where failure to parenthesize leads to subtler
semantic differences in reloaded rules.  Per report from Alexandr Popov.
