I have looked at that, and it was actually confusing as the callback
would also be called on reload if archive_library changes, but the
update somewhat outlines that this would happen only on postmaster
shutdown.

The test had a few issues:
- No need to wait for postmaster.pid in the test, as pg_ctl does this
job.
- The reload can be time-sensitive on slow machines, so I have added a
query run to make sure that the reload happens before stopping the
server.
- slurp_file() was feeding on the full log file of standby2, but we
should load it from the log location before stopping the server, even
if log_min_messages was updated only at the end of the test.

And done, after tweaking a few more things.
