Turns out one of the nocfbot patches was needed to have MacOS passing in
CI due to:

    PYTEST_DEBUG_TEMPROOT: /tmp  # default is too long for UNIX sockets on Mac

I've removed that now and am using shorter temp paths for UNIX sockets
always now, so that people running tests locally on MacOS don't run into
this problem either.

I've also improved the inclusion of Postgres logs in the failure report.
They are now split by phase (setup, test, teardown) and are also shown
when the server failed to start up.
