Remove redundant and ineffective test for btree insertion fast path.
indexing.sql's test for this feature was added along with the feature in commit 2b272734. However, shortly later that test was rendered ineffective by commit 074251db, which limited when the optimization would be applied, so that the test didn't test it. Since then, commit dd299df8 added new tests (in btree_index.sql) that actually do test the feature. Code coverage comparisons confirm that this test sequence adds no meaningful coverage, and it's rather expensive, accounting for nearly half of the runtime of indexing.sql according to my measurements. So let's remove it. Per advice from Peter Geoghegan. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/735.1554935715@sss.pgh.pa.us
