This test script is unsafe to run in "make installcheck" mode for (at least) two reasons: it creates and destroys some role names that don't follow the "regress_xxx" naming convention, and it sets and then resets the application_name GUC attached to every existing role. While we've not had complaints, these surely are not good things to do within a production installation, and regress.sgml pretty clearly implies that we won't do them. Rather than lose test coverage altogether, let's just move this script somewhere where it will get run by "make check" but not "make installcheck". src/test/modules/ already has that property. Since it seems likely that we'll want other regression tests in future that also exceed the constraints of "make installcheck", create a generically-named src/test/modules/unsafe_tests/ directory to hold them.
