Cool. I realize now why there's poor coverage for pg_upgrade with
tablespaces: you can't upgrade between the same version with tablespaces
(presumably due to the version-specific subdirectory conflict). I don't
know if the regression tests leave around any tablespaces for the
cross-version pg_upgrade tests, but that's probably the best we can do at
the moment.
For now, here's a new version of the test with a rewritten table. I also
tried to fix the expected error regex to handle some of the other error
messages for unsupported modes (as revealed by cfbot).
