Daniel Gustafsson 558fff0adf pg_regress: Emit TAP compliant output
This converts pg_regress output format to emit TAP compliant output
while keeping it as human readable as possible for use without TAP
test harnesses. As verbose harness related information isn't really
supported by TAP this also reduces the verbosity of pg_regress runs
which makes scrolling through log output in buildfarm/CI runs a bit
easier as well.

As the meson TAP parser conumes whitespace, the leading indentation
for differentiating parallel tests from sequential tests has been
changed to a single character prefix.

This patch has been around for an extended period of time, reviewers
listed below may have been involved in reviewing a version quite
different from the version in this commit.  The original idea for
this patch was a hacking session with Jinbao Chen.

TAP format testing is also enabled in meson as of this.

<!-- doc/src/sgml/README.links -->

Linking within DocBook documents can be confusing, so here is a summary:


Intra-document Linking
----------------------

<xref>
	use to get chapter/section number from the title of the target
	link, or xreflabel if defined at the target, or refentrytitle if target
        is a refentry;  has no close tag
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/xref.html

linkend=
	controls the target of the link/xref, required

endterm=
	for <xref>, allows the text of the link/xref to be taken from a
	different link target title

<link>
	use to supply text for the link, only uses linkend, requires </link>
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/link.html
	can be embedded inside of <command>, unlike <xref>


External Linking
----------------

<ulink>
	like <link>, but uses a URL (not a document target);  requires
	</ulink>; if no text is specified, the URL appears as the link
	text
	http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/ulink.html

url=
	used by <ulink> to specify the URL, required


Guidelines
----------

- For an internal link, if you want to supply text, use <link>, else
  <xref>.

- Specific nouns like GUC variables, SQL commands, and contrib modules
  usually have xreflabels.

- For an external link, use <ulink>, with or without link text.

- xreflabels added to tags prevent the chapter/section for id's from being
  referenced;  only the xreflabel is accessible.  Therefore, use xreflabels
  only when linking is common, and chapter/section information is unneeded.
