The TAP tests whose ok() calls are changed in this commit were relying
on perl operators, rather than equivalents available in Test::More. For
example, rather than the following:
ok($data =~ qr/expr/m, "expr matching");
ok($data !~ qr/expr/m, "expr not matching");
The new test code uses this equivalent:
like($data, qr/expr/m, "expr matching");
unlike($data, qr/expr/m, "expr not matching");
A huge benefit of the new formulation is that it is possible to know
about the values we are checking if a failure happens, making debugging
easier, should the test runs happen in the buildfarm, in the CI or
locally.
This change leads to more test code overall as perltidy likes to make
the code pretty the way it is in this commit.

There are a lot of Perl scripts in the tree, mostly code generation
and TAP tests. Occasionally, these scripts produce warnings. These
are probably always mistakes on the developer side (true positives).
Typical examples are warnings from genbki.pl or related when you make
a mess in the catalog files during development, or warnings from tests
when they massage a config file that looks different on different
hosts, or mistakes during merges (e.g., duplicate subroutine
definitions), or just mistakes that weren't noticed because there is a
lot of output in a verbose build.
This changes all warnings into fatal errors, by replacing
use warnings;
by
use warnings FATAL => 'all';
in all Perl files.

Run pgindent, pgperltidy, and reformat-dat-files.
This set of diffs is a bit larger than typical. We've updated to
pg_bsd_indent 2.1.2, which properly indents variable declarations that
have multi-line initialization expressions (the continuation lines are
now indented one tab stop). We've also updated to perltidy version
20230309 and changed some of its settings, which reduces its desire to
add whitespace to lines to make assignments etc. line up. Going
forward, that should make for fewer random-seeming changes to existing
code.

Rather than doing manual book keeping to plan the number of tests to run
in each TAP suite, conclude each run with done_testing() summing up the
the number of tests that ran. This removes the need for maintaning and
updating the plan count at the expense of an accurate count of remaining
during the test suite runtime.
This patch has been discussed a number of times, often in the context of
other patches which updates tests, so a larger number of discussions can
be found in the archives.
