Nathan Bossart 0970889e35 Fix contrib/pageinspect's test for sequences.
I managed to break this test in two different ways in commit
05036a3155.

First, the output of the new call to tuple_data_split() on the test
sequence is dependent on endianness.  This is fixed by setting a
special start value for the test sequence that produces the same
output regardless of the endianness of the machine.

Second, on versions older than v15, the new test case fails under
"force_parallel_mode = regress" with the following error:

	ERROR:  cannot access temporary tables during a parallel operation

This is because pageinspect's disk-accessing functions are
incorrectly marked PARALLEL SAFE on versions older than v15 (see
commit aeaaf520f4 for details).  This one is fixed by changing the
test sequence to be permanent.  The only reason it was previously
marked temporary was to avoid needing a DROP SEQUENCE command at
the end of the test.  Unlike some other tests in this file, the use
of a permanent sequence here shouldn't result in any test
instability like what was fixed by commit e2933a6e11.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
