tests: Fix race condition in postmaster/002_connection_limits The test occasionally failed due to unexpected connection limit errors being encountered after having waited for FATAL errors on another connection. These spurious failures were caused by the the backend reporting FATAL errors to the client before detaching from the PGPROC entry. Adding a sleep(1) before proc_exit() makes it easy to reproduce that problem. To fix the issue, add a helper function that waits for postmaster to notice the process having exited. For now this is implemented by waiting for the DEBUG2 message that postmaster logs in that case. That's not the prettiest fix, but simple. If we notice this problem elsewhere, it might be worthwhile to make this more general, e.g. by adding an injection point.
New test breaks when log_error_verbosity=verbose. It's adding an SQL ERRCODE to the DEBUG string.
