Thanks for working on it.

Your test is checking that stuff in sample.conf is actually a GUC and not
marked NOT_IN_SAMPLE. But those are both unlikely mistakes to make.

The important/interesting test is the opposite: that all GUCs are present in
the sample file. It's a lot easier for someone to forget to add a GUC to
sample.conf than it is for someone to accidentally add something that isn't a
GUC.

I'd first parse the GUC-like lines in the file, making a list of gucs_in_file
and then compare the two lists.
