Add test for session_preload_libraries and parameter permissions checks.
Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Add test for session_preload_libraries and parameter permissions checks. We weren't exercising the session_preload_libraries option in any meaningful way. auto_explain is a good testbed for doing so, since it's one of the primary use-cases for session_preload_libraries. Hence, adjust its TAP test to load the library via session_preload_libraries not shared_preload_libraries. While at it, feed test-specific settings to the backend via PGOPTIONS rather than tediously rewriting postgresql.conf. Also, since auto_explain has some PGC_SUSET parameters, we can use it to provide a test case for the permissions-checking bug just fixed by commit b35617de3. Back-patch to v15 so that we have coverage for the permissions issue in that branch too. To do that, I back-patched the refactoring recently done by commit 550bc0a6c.
