Michael Paquier 52377bb81a Revert "Add TAP test to automate the equivalent of check_guc"
This reverts commit b0a55f4, to remove for now the TAP test that did the
equivalent of check_guc.  The test has been using pg_config --sharedir
to find the location of postgresql.conf.sample.  While the buildfarm and
normal build environments rather liked that, this proves to be an issue
for Debian where pg_config is patched to not be relocatable, causing the
test to fail.

Rather than relying on pg_config, we'd better find the sample file based
on its location from the source directory.  However, this is also an
issue as a TAP test only offers the build directory as of TESTDIR in the
environment context, so this would fail with VPATH builds.  Perhaps the
source path could be provided additionally when running the TAP tests.
Or perhaps we may be able to get away by just switching to a SQL
approach, by using PG_ABS_SRCDIR but this is going to require some extra
loops to get the sample file from the correct path in src/backend/.  In
any case, this needs more thoughts, so just revert the test case until
something better is done about this relocation problem.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
