This test script is unsafe to run in "make installcheck" mode for (at least) two reasons: it creates and destroys some role names that don't follow the "regress_xxx" naming convention, and it sets and then resets the application_name GUC attached to every existing role. While we've not had complaints, these surely are not good things to do within a production installation, and regress.sgml pretty clearly implies that we won't do them. Rather than lose test coverage altogether, let's just move this script somewhere where it will get run by "make check" but not "make installcheck". src/test/modules/ already has that property. Since it seems likely that we'll want other regression tests in future that also exceed the constraints of "make installcheck", create a generically-named src/test/modules/unsafe_tests/ directory to hold them.

Test extensions and libraries ============================= src/test/modules contains PostgreSQL extensions that are primarily or entirely intended for testing PostgreSQL and/or to serve as example code. The extensions here aren't intended to be installed in a production server and aren't suitable for "real work". Furthermore, while you can do "make install" and "make installcheck" in this directory or its children, it is NOT ADVISABLE to do so with a server containing valuable data. Some of these tests may have undesirable side-effects on roles or other global objects within the tested server. "make installcheck-world" at the top level does not recurse into this directory. Most extensions have their own pg_regress tests or isolationtester specs. Some are also used by tests elsewhere in the tree. If you're adding new hooks or other functionality exposed as C-level API this is where to add the tests for it.
