pgsql: Add skip-empty-xacts option to test_decoding for use in the regr

Add skip-empty-xacts option to test_decoding for use in the regression tests.

The regression tests for contrib/test_decoding regularly failed on
postgres instances that were very slow. Either because the hardware
itself was slow or because very expensive debugging options like
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS were used.

The reason they failed was just that some additional transactions were
decoded. Analyze and vacuum, triggered by autovac.

To fix just add a option to test_decoding to only display transactions
in which a change was actually displayed. That's not pretty because it
removes information from the tests; but better than constantly failing
tests in very likely harmless ways.

Backpatch to 9.4 where logical decoding was introduced.
