OK. So after looking at this a bit, the reason PAGER and PSQL_PAGER
don't cause us any problems in the test environment is that they are
not honored unless isatty(fileno(stdin)) && isatty(fileno(stdout)).
It seems to me that it's a bug that there is no such check before
using PSQL_WATCH_PAGER. Is there actually any defensible reason
for that?
I think we do need to clear out all three variables in
Cluster::interactive_psql. But our regular psql tests shouldn't
be at risk here.
