Verify roundtrip dump/restore of regression database
Add a test to pg_upgrade's test suite that verifies that
dump-restore-dump of regression database produces equivalent output to
dumping it directly. This was already being tested by running
pg_upgrade itself, but non-binary-upgrade mode was not being covered.
The regression database has accrued, over time, a sufficient collection
of interesting objects to ensure good coverage, but there hasn't been a
concerted effort to be completely exhaustive, so it is likely still
possible to have more.
This'd belong more naturally in the pg_dump test suite, but we chose to
put it in src/bin/pg_upgrade/t/002_pg_upgrade.pl because we need a run
of the regression tests which is already done here, so this has less
total test runtime impact. Also, experiments have shown that using
parallel dump/restore is slightly faster, so we use --format=directory -j2.
This test has already reported pg_dump bugs, as fixed in fd41ba93e463,
74563f6b9021, d611f8b1587b, 4694aedf63bf.
