Hmm. The function's name is pg_size_bytes. How number of bytes can be
negative? How any length can be negative? If anyone insert '-' sign to
an argument, it is copy-paste error. I don't see any case where there
is possible negatives as input value.

I prefer error message instead of getting all relations (by using
comparison from the initial letter) just because of copy-paste mistake
or incomplete checking of input values at app-level.
