The main reason I made the INSTALLCHECK runs conditional (they only run if a
new option is specified) is because of these comments:

| # Disabled because these tests require "shared_preload_libraries=pg_stat_statements",
| # which typical installcheck users do not have (e.g. buildfarm clients).
| NO_INSTALLCHECK = 1

Also, I saw that you saw that Thomas discovered/pointed out that a bunch of TAP
tests aren't being run by CI.   I think vcregress should have an "alltap"
target that runs everything like glob("**/t/").  CI would use that instead of
the existing ssl, auth, subscription, recovery, and bin targets.  The buildfarm
could switch to that after it's been published.
