postgres_fdw: stabilize terminated-connection regression tests
The regression test for postgres_fdw_get_connections(true) assumed that
a terminated remote connection would still remain visible in the FDW
connection cache long enough to be reported as closed with a nonzero
remote_backend_pid.
That assumption is not always valid. postgres_fdw_get_connections()
reports only entries that are still present in ConnectionHash, while
pgfdw_inval_callback() may immediately discard an idle cached connection
(xact_depth == 0) when a relevant invalidation arrives. In CI, that can
happen between terminating the remote backend and querying
postgres_fdw_get_connections(true), causing the function to return no
rows.
Adjust the idle-connection test to accept either outcome: if the cache
entry is still present, verify that it reports the expected server name,
closed status, and nonzero remote backend PID; otherwise treat zero rows
as a legitimate result.
To preserve coverage of the terminated-backend reporting path, add a
separate check inside an explicit transaction. In that case, concurrent
invalidation may mark the connection invalid but cannot discard it
before transaction end, so postgres_fdw_get_connections(true) should
still report the terminated connection as in-use, closed, and associated
with a nonzero remote backend PID.
Backpatch to v18, where the affected postgres_fdw_get_connections(true)
test was introduced.
