Peter Eisentraut 648c72956f Convert encrypted SSL test keys to PKCS#8 format
OpenSSL in FIPS mode rejects several encrypted private keys used in
the test suites ssl and ssl_passphrase_callback.  This is because they
are in a "traditional" OpenSSL format that uses MD5 for key
generation.  The fix is to convert them to the more standard PKCS#8
format that uses SHA1 for key derivation.

This commit contains the converted keys, with the conversion done like
this:

openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -in src/test/modules/ssl_passphrase_callback/server.key -passin pass:FooBaR1 -out src/test/modules/ssl_passphrase_callback/server.key.new -passout pass:FooBaR1
mv src/test/modules/ssl_passphrase_callback/server.key.new src/test/modules/ssl_passphrase_callback/server.key

etc., as well as updated build rules to generate the keys in the new
format if they need to be regenerated.

Test extensions and libraries
=============================

src/test/modules contains PostgreSQL extensions that are primarily or entirely
intended for testing PostgreSQL and/or to serve as example code. The extensions
here aren't intended to be installed in a production server and aren't suitable
for "real work".

Furthermore, while you can do "make install" and "make installcheck" in
this directory or its children, it is NOT ADVISABLE to do so with a server
containing valuable data.  Some of these tests may have undesirable
side-effects on roles or other global objects within the tested server.
"make installcheck-world" at the top level does not recurse into this
directory.

Most extensions have their own pg_regress tests or isolationtester specs. Some
are also used by tests elsewhere in the tree.

If you're adding new hooks or other functionality exposed as C-level API this
is where to add the tests for it.
