Tom Lane c23796b1a6 Probe $PROVE not $PERL while checking for modules needed by TAP tests.
Normally "prove" and "perl" come from the same Perl installation,
but we support the case where they don't (mainly because the MSys
buildfarm animals need this).  In that case, AX_PROG_PERL_MODULES
is completely the wrong thing to use, because it's checking what
"perl" has.  Instead, make a little TAP test script including the
required modules, and run that under "prove".

We don't need ax_prog_perl_modules.m4 at all after this change,
so remove it.

Back-patch to all supported branches, for the buildfarm's benefit.
(In v10, this also back-patches the effects of commit 264eb03aa.)

Andrew Dunstan and Tom Lane, per an observation by Noah Misch

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/.
