Add module build directory to the PATH for TAP tests
For non-MSVC builds this is make's $(CURDIR), while for MSVC builds it
is $topdir/$Config/$module. The directory is added as the second element
in the PATH, so that the install location takes precedence, but the
added PATH element takes precedence over the rest of the PATH.

The reason for this is to allow tests to find built products that are
not installed, such as the libpq_pipeline test driver.

The libpq_pipeline test is adjusted to take advantage of this.

Based on a suggestion from Andres Freund.

Backpatch to release 14.

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
