Maybe it's better to use slurp_file(). We already have wait_for_log() to
wait for a message in the cluster's log file, but there's no helper function
to wait for specific content to appear in an arbitrary file.
To support waiting for output in pg_recvlogical's output file,
I added a new helper that uses slurp_file() (see the attached 0002 patch).
I also updated the 0003 patch (the pg_recvlogical reconnection test) to
use this helper instead of pg_read_file(). Thoughts?

As a result of removing poll_query_until() with pg_read_file(), the patch
now contains only one "or die" code. In that case, I chose "to reconnect"
rather than "establish a new connection".

Agreed, I've applied that change.
