Fix postmaster crash on whitespace-only oauth_validator_libraries
The check_oauth_validator check for an empty validator list didn't test
for a string with only whitespace, which would cause the postmaster to
crash. Instead of testing for the empty string cases, pass the config
value to SplitDirectoriesString unconditionally. If an empty list is
returned then the input string was empty. Since pstrdup cannot handle
NULL, assert that the string ie set. While users cannot set the string
to NULL, it is initialized to NULL so guard against programmer error.
Check the parsed list instead. Assert that the GUC string is non-NULL
before pstrdup(); users cannot set it to NULL, but the C variable is
initialized that way.
This also adds a TAP test that reloads a whitespace-only setting after
pg_hba_file_rules and waits until the existing backend sees the restored
GUC.
