Upgrade the random.sql regression test.
We had some pretty ad-hoc and inefficient code here. To make matters worse, it didn't test the properties of the random() function very thoroughly, and it had a test failure rate of one in every few tens of thousands of runs. Replace the script altogether with new test cases that prove much more about random()'s output, run faster, and can be calculated to have test failure rates on the order of 1e-9. Having done that, the failure rate of this script should be negligible in comparison to other causes of test failures, so remove the "ignore" marker for it in parallel_schedule. (If it does fail, we'd like to know about that, so "ignore" was always pretty counterproductive.) Tom Lane and Dean Rasheed Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4173840.1673290336@sss.pgh.pa.us
