Having done that, shouldn't we remove prepared-transactions_1.out (the
"expected" file for the prepared-transactions-disabled case)?

Having a megabyte-sized test file for that case has always seemed pretty
wasteful to me. Now that the test won't be run unless intentionally
selected, it seems like people who are using it would expect it to
actually test prepared transactions --- so having it "pass" when they're
disabled seems wrong.
