Create an SP-GiST opclass for inet/cidr.

This seems to offer significantly better search performance than the
existing GiST opclass for inet/cidr, at least on data with a wide mix
of network mask lengths.  (That may suggest that the data splitting
heuristics in the GiST opclass could be improved.)
