Tom Lane c06e3550dc Don't request pretty-printed output from xmlNodeDump().
xml.c passed format = 1 to xmlNodeDump(), resulting in sometimes getting
extra whitespace (newlines + spaces) in the output.  We don't really want
that, first because whitespace might be semantically significant in some
XML uses, and second because it happens only very inconsistently.  Only
one case in our regression tests is affected.

This potentially affects the results of xpath() and the XMLTABLE construct,
when emitting nodeset values.

Note that the older code in contrib/xml2 doesn't do this; it seems
to have been an aboriginal bad decision in commit ea3b212fe.

While this definitely seems like a bug to me, the small number of
complaints to date argues against back-patching a behavioral change.
Hence, fix in HEAD only, at least for now.

Per report from Jean-Marc Voillequin.

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

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

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

thread/
  A thread-safety-testing utility used by configure
