Another thing I noticed when fixing *this*, in turn, is that if you load
worker_spi in shared_preload_libraries then the contrib_regression
database doesn't exist by the point that runs, so those workers fail to
start. The dynamic one does start in the configured database.
I guess we could just ignore the failures and just rely on the dynamic
worker.

I ended up with these two patches. I'm not sure about pushing
separately. It seems pointless to backport the "fix" to back branches
anyway.
