Because you never process the output from pg_recvlogical I think this test
will fail if the pipe buffer is small (or more changes are made). I think
either it needs to output to a file, or we need to process the output.
A file seems the easier solution in this case, we don't really care about what
changes are streamed to the client, right?

Why are we creating a new cluster? Initdbs takes a fair bit of time on some
platforms, so this seems unnecessary?
