In addition to numerous minor tweaks and bug fixes, the following changes are made:

• many improvements in the collection of log files

• accommodate change in data checksum default in cross version upgrade testing

• increase default PGCTLTIMEOUT to 180s

• improve "safe" environment set, including all in the build_env configuration settings

• on script timeout, don't just fail but send the result to the server (Note: the timeout mechanism doesn't work on Windows, and has been disabled there)

• set the default timeout to 4 hours.

• remove redundant TestDecoding module

• add a module for running "make dist"

• improve detection of failures when running with meson

• add README files to the set ignored by the sample trigger_exclude setting.

Upgrading is highly recommended.
