Peter Eisentraut 17974ec259 Revise GUC names quoting in messages again
After further review, we want to move in the direction of always
quoting GUC names in error messages, rather than the previous (PG16)
wildly mixed practice or the intermittent (mid-PG17) idea of doing
this depending on how possibly confusing the GUC name is.

This commit applies appropriate quotes to (almost?) all mentions of
GUC names in error messages.  It partially supersedes a243569bf6 and
8d9978a717, which had moved things a bit in the opposite direction
but which then were abandoned in a partial state.

Regression tests for recovery and replication
=============================================

This directory contains a test suite for recovery and replication.

Running the tests
=================

NOTE: You must have given the --enable-tap-tests argument to configure.
Also, to use "make installcheck", you must have built and installed
contrib/pg_prewarm, contrib/pg_stat_statements and contrib/test_decoding
in addition to the core code.

Run
    make check
or
    make installcheck
You can use "make installcheck" if you previously did "make install".
In that case, the code in the installation tree is tested.  With
"make check", a temporary installation tree is built from the current
sources and then tested.

Either way, this test initializes, starts, and stops several test Postgres
clusters.

If you want to test WAL consistency checking, add
PG_TEST_EXTRA=wal_consistency_checking
to the "make" command.  This is resource-intensive, so it's not done
by default.

See src/test/perl/README for more info about running these tests.
