Michael Paquier d5ab331a33 Add more $Test::Builder::Level in the TAP tests Incrementing the level of the call stack reported is useful for debugging purposes as it allows to control which part of the test is exactly failing, especially if a test is structured with subroutines that call routines from Test::More. This adds more incrementations of $Test::Builder::Level where debugging gets improved (for example it does not make sense for some paths like pg_rewind where long subroutines are used). A note is added to src/test/perl/README about that, based on a suggestion from Andrew Dunstan and a wording coming from both of us. Usage of Test::Builder::Level has spread in 12, so a backpatch down to this version is done.

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
