Andres Freund 60c2951e1b Remove reindex_catalog test from test schedules.
As the test currently causes occasional deadlocks (due to the schema
cleanup from previous sessions potentially still running), and the
patch from f912d7dec2 has gotten a fair bit of buildfarm coverage,
remove the test from the test schedules. There's a set of minor
releases coming up.

Leave the tests in place, so it can manually be run using EXTRA_TESTS.

For now also leave it in master, as there's no imminent release, and
there's plenty (re-)index related work in 12. But we'll have to
disable it before long there too, unless somebody comes up with simple
enough fixes for the deadlock (I'm about to post a vague idea to the
list).

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

  Tests for authentication

examples/
  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

isolation/
  Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level

locale/
  Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc

mb/
  Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support

modules/
  Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable
  for installing in production databases
