Обсуждение: Fix regression tests to work with REGRESS_OPTS=--no-locale

Hi all,

While doing some tests with the tree, I have noticed that we don't do
in the tests of unaccent the business that we have elsewhere
(test_regex, fuzzystrmatch, now hstore, collation tests, etc.) to make
the tests portable when these tests include UTF-8 characters but the
regression database cannot support that.

It took some time to notice that, which makes me wonder how relevant
this stuff is these days..  Anyway, I would like to do like the others
and fix it, so I am proposing the attached.

Thoughts?

Please find attached a v2 that removes the ENCODING and NO_LOCALE
flags from meson.build and Makefile, that I forgot to clean up
previously.  Note that I am not planning to do anything here until at
least v17 opens for business.

I think it makes sense to make those checks consistent.

Thanks for the review!

The last thing that sets ENCODING is test_oat_hooks, for stability.
NO_LOCALE is used in test_oat_hooks and test_extensions (71cac85).  I
am not planning to touch any of these.
