Add test case for obsoleting slot with active walsender
The code to signal a running walsender when its reserved WAL size grows
too large is completely uncovered before this commit; this adds coverage
for that case.
This test involves sending SIGSTOP to walsender and walreceiver and
running a checkpoint while advancing WAL, then sending SIGCONT. There's
no precedent for this coding in Perl tests, and my reading of relevant
manpages says it's likely to fail on Windows. Because of this, this
test is always skipped on that platform.
