These tests verify that 1) WAL replay preserves the stored value, 2) a streaming standby server replays the value obtained from the master, and 3) the behavior is sensible in the face of repeated configuration changes. One annoyance is that tmp_check/ subdir from the TAP tests is clobbered when the pg_regress test runs in the same subdirectory. This is bothersome but not too terrible a problem, since the pg_regress test is not run anyway if the TAP tests fail (unless "make -k" is used). I had these tests around since commit 69e7235c93e2; add them now that we have the recovery test framework in place.
