Thanks for the review.

1. Adding macaddr8 support for btree_gist and testcases.

Added the support for macaddr8 datatype for both btree_gin and btree_gist
modules and the tests also.

I didn't update the *.sql files to the latest version and just added the
update *.sql
file only as like earlier changes on btree_gist for UUID support to make it
easier
for the reviewer.

The patch is split into two parts.
1. Macaddr8 datatype support
2. Contrib module support.
