The module relies on a shmem exit callback to clean up any injection
points linked to a specific process. One of the tests checks for the
case of an injection point name reused in a second connection where the
first connection should clean it up, but it did not count for the fact
that the shmem exit callback of the first connection may not have run
when the second connection begins its work.
The regress library includes a wait_pid() that can be used for this
purpose, instead of a custom wait logic, so let's rely on it to wait for
the first connection to exit before working with the second connection.
The module gains a REGRESS_OPTS to be able to look at the regress
library's dlpath.
This issue could be reproduced with a hardcoded sleep() in the shmem
exit callback, and the CI has been able to trigger it sporadically.

This adds a new SQL function injection_points_set_local() that can be
used to force injection points to be run only in the process where they
are attached. This is handy for SQL tests to:
- Detach automatically injection points when the process exits.
- Allow tests with injection points to run concurrently with other test
suites, so as such modules do not have to be marked with
NO_INSTALLCHECK.
Currently, the only condition that can be registered is for a PID.
This could be extended to more kinds later, if required, like database
names/OIDs, roles, or more concepts I did not consider.
Using a single function for SQL scripts is an idea from Heikki
Linnakangas.

This provides basic coverage for injection points within a single
process, while providing some callbacks that can be used for other
tests. There are plans to extend this module later with more
advanced capabilities for tests.
