Explain the difference between "make check" and "make installcheck".
Mention the need for --enable-tap-tests (only some of these did so
before).  Standardize their wording about how to run the tests.

Running the tests
=================
NOTE: You must have given the --enable-tap-tests argument to configure.
Run
make check
or
make installcheck
You can use "make installcheck" if you previously did "make install".
In that case, the code in the installation tree is tested. With
"make check", a temporary installation tree is built from the current
sources and then tested.
NOTE: This requires the --enable-tap-tests argument to configure.
Either way, this test initializes, starts, and stops a test Postgres
cluster.
