Reduce length of GIN predicate locking isolation test suite

Isolation test suite of GIN predicate locking was criticized for being too slow,
especially under Valgrind.  This commit is intended to accelerate it.  Tests are
simplified in the following ways.

  1) Amount of data is reduced.  We're now close to the minimal amount of data,
     which produces at least one posting tree and at least two pages of entry
     tree.
  2) Three isolation tests are merged into one.
  3) Only one tuple is queried from posting tree.  So, locking of index is the
     same, but tuple locks are not propagated to relation lock.  Also, it is
     faster.
  4) Test cases itself are simplified.  Now each test case run just one INSERT
     and one SELECT involving GIN, which either conflict or not.
