This should be a separate suite. And FWIW, we only use pg_regress to
make sure that an already-initialized data folder has the correct,
secure authentication set. So creating a node with checksums enabled is
just that:
$node->init(extra => ['--data-checksums']);
[... 20 minutes later ...]
Attached is a basic test suite ;)
