Revert "Secure Unix-domain sockets of "make check" temporary clusters."

About half of the buildfarm members use too-long directory names,
strongly suggesting that this approach is a dead end.

On systems lacking Unix-domain sockets, notably Windows, this test method
starts a temporary server configured to accept any connection originating
on the local machine. Any local user can gain database superuser
privileges when connecting to this server, and could in principle exploit
all privileges of the operating-system user running the tests. Therefore,
it is not recommended that you use <literal>make check</> on an affected
system shared with untrusted users. Instead, run the tests after
completing the installation, as described in the next section.

On Unix-like machines, this danger can be avoided if the temporary
server's socket file is made inaccessible to other users, for example
by running the tests in a protected chroot. On Windows, the temporary
server opens a locally-accessible TCP socket, so filesystem protections
cannot help.

To protect your operating system user account, the test driver places the
server's socket in a relative subdirectory inaccessible to other users.
Since most systems constrain the length of socket paths well
below <literal>_POSIX_PATH_MAX</>, testing may fail to start from a
directory with a long name. Work around this problem by pointing
the <envar>PG_REGRESS_SOCK_DIR</> environment variable to a substitute
socket directory having a shorter path. On a multi-user system, give that
directory mode <literal>0700</>.
