Avoid low-probability regression test failures in timestamp[tz] tests.
If the first transaction block in these tests were entered exactly at midnight (California time), they'd report a bogus failure due to 'now' and 'midnight' having the same values. Commit 8c2ac75c had dismissed this as being of negligible probability, but we've now seen it happen in the buildfarm, so let's prevent it. We can get pretty much the same test coverage without an it's-not-midnight assumption by moving the does-'now'-work cases into their own test step. While here, apply commit 47169c25's s/DELETE/TRUNCATE/ change to timestamptz as well as timestamp (not sure why that didn't occur to me at the time; the risk of failure is the same). Back-patch to all supported branches, since the main point is to get rid of potential buildfarm failures. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/14821.1577031117@sss.pgh.pa.us
