ci: Add MTEST_SUITES for optional test tailoring

Beta feature

Hackorum builds and tests every patch posted to the lists, not only commitfest submissions. This is Hackorum's own CI rather than the PostgreSQL project's, and it is still under testing - please report anything that looks wrong.

won't retrysuccessCI history

You can run a PostgreSQL built from this patch straight from Docker, with no checkout and no build:

docker run --rm -p 5432:5432 ghcr.io/hackorum-dev/postgres-patch:t53050
psql -h localhost -U postgres

Built from patchset v1 (message #1), July 27, 2026 at 05:09 AM.

Every patchset is also pushed to a branch of our PostgreSQL fork, so you can check out the same tree CI built. Without a PostgreSQL checkout:

git clone --branch t53050_1 https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.git

In a checkout you already have, add the fork once:

git remote add hackorum https://github.com/hackorum-dev/postgres.git

then, for this patchset and every later one:

git fetch hackorum t53050_1 && git checkout t53050_1

Patchset v1 (message #1) is on t53050_1

This was originally submitted as the pytest thread, but Andres validly
pointed out that it should probably not be part of it to reduce the size
of that patchset.

I think it's still useful though, so I'm submitting separately
(eventhough Jacob wrote it).

A version of this arrived yesterday with MTEST_TARGET, so hooray! I'll
close this in the CF.
