    Add basic TAP tests for psql's tab-completion logic. · 7c015045
    Tom Lane authored
    Up to now, psql's tab-complete.c has had exactly no regression test
    coverage.  This patch is an experimental attempt to add some.
    
    This needs Perl's IO::Pty module, which isn't installed everywhere,
    so the test script just skips all tests if that's not present.
    There may be other portability gotchas too, so I await buildfarm
    results with interest.
    
    So far this just covers a few very basic keyword-completion and
    query-driven-completion scenarios, which should be enough to let us
    get a feel for whether this is practical at all from a portability
    standpoint.  If it is, there's lots more that can be done.
