Michael Paquier 5105c90796 Make GIN tests using injection points concurrent-safe
f587338dec has introduced in the test module injection_points a SQL
function called injection_points_set_local(), that can be used to make
all the injection points linked to the process where they are attached,
discarded automatically if any remain once the process exits.

e2e3b8ae9e has added a NO_INSTALLCHECK to the test module to prevent
the use of installcheck.  Now that there is a way to make the test
concurrent-safe, let's use it and remove the installcheck restriction.

Concurrency issues could be easily reproduced by running in a tight
loop a command like this one, in src/test/modules/gin/ (hardcoding
pg_sleep() after attaching injection points enlarges the race window)
and a second test suite like contrib/btree_gin/:

  make installcheck USE_MODULE_DB=1

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

authentication/
  Tests for authentication (but see also below)

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

kerberos/
  Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption

ldap/
  Tests for LDAP-based authentication

locale/
  Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc

mb/
  Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support

modules/
  Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable
  for installing in production databases

perl/
  Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests

recovery/
  Test suite for recovery and replication

regress/
  PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress

ssl/
  Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling

subscription/
  Tests for logical replication
