This makes the psql() method much more capable: it captures both stdout and stderr; it now returns the psql exit code rather than stdout; a timeout can now be specified, as can ON_ERROR_STOP behavior; it gained a new "on_error_die" (defaulting to off) parameter to raise an exception if there's any problem. Finally, additional parameters to psql can be passed if there's need for further tweaking. For convenience, a new safe_psql() method retains much of the old behavior of psql(), except that it uses on_error_die on, so that problems like syntax errors in SQL commands can be detected more easily. Many existing TAP test files now use safe_psql, which is what is really wanted. A couple of ->psql() calls are now added in the commit_ts tests, which verify that the right thing is happening on certain errors. Some ->command_fails() calls in recovery tests that were verifying that psql failed also became ->psql() calls now. Author: Craig Ringer. Some tweaks by Álvaro Herrera Reviewed-By: Michaël Paquier
