Clean up a couple of box gist helper functions.
The original idea of this patch was to make box picksplit run faster, by
eliminating unnecessary palloc() overhead, but that was obsoleted by the new
double-sorting split algorithm that doesn't call these functions so heavily
anymore. Nevertheless, the code looks better this way.
Original patch by me, reviewed and tidied up after the double-sorting patch
by Kevin Grittner.
