Stabilize recovery conflict count checks in 031_recovery_conflict.pl
Buildfarm members olingo and adder reported failures in
031_recovery_conflict.pl where a recovery conflict was counted twice.
olingo saw the snapshot conflict count reach 2 instead of 1, while adder
saw the same for the buffer pin conflict count.
The startup process can signal a standby backend again while it is
reporting a recovery-conflict FATAL error. Each processed conflict can
increment the corresponding statistic. Thus, even when the expected
conflict occurs, its counter can exceed 1. The existing poll for exactly 1
can then time out, and the exact check of the aggregate count can fail as
well.
Fix this by polling for a positive count for each conflict type and
accepting an aggregate count of at least the expected number.
Backpatch to v17, where this test was enabled.
