Create common infrastructure for cross-version upgrade testing.
To test pg_upgrade across major PG versions, we have to be able to modify or drop any old objects with no-longer-supported properties, and we have to be able to deal with cosmetic changes in pg_dump output. Up to now, the buildfarm and pg_upgrade's own test infrastructure had separate implementations of the former, and we had nothing but very ad-hoc rules for the latter (including an arbitrary threshold on how many lines of unchecked diff were okay!). This patch creates a Perl module that can be shared by both those use-cases, and adds logic that deals with pg_dump output diffs in a much more tightly defined fashion. This largely supersedes previous efforts in commits 0df9641, 9814ff5, and 62be9e4, which developed a SQL-script-based solution for the task of dropping old objects. There was nothing fundamentally wrong with that work in itself, but it had no basis for solving the output-formatting problem. The most plausible way to deal with formatting is to build a Perl module that can perform editing on the dump files; and once we commit to that, it makes more sense for the same module to also embed the knowledge of what has to be done for dropping old objects. Back-patch versions of the helper module as far as 9.2, to support buildfarm animals that still test that far back. It's also necessary to back-patch PostgreSQL/Version.pm, because the new code depends on that. I fixed up pg_upgrade's 002_pg_upgrade.pl in v15, but did not look into back-patching it further than that. Tom Lane and Andrew Dunstan Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/[email protected]
