The missing dependency was, e.g., visible when doing ninja clean && ninja meson-test-prereq && meson test --no-rebuild --suite setup --suite libpq This is a bit more complicated than other related fixes, because until now libpq's tests depended on 'frontend_code', which includes a dependency on fe_utils, which in turns on libpq. That in turn required src/interfaces/libpq/test to be entered from the top-level, not from libpq/meson.build. Because of that the test definitions in libpq/meson.build could not declare a dependency on the binaries defined in libpq/test/meson.build. To fix this, this commit creates frontend_no_fe_utils_code, which allows us to recurse into libpq/test from withing libpq/meson.build. Apply this to all branches with meson support, as part of an effort to fix incorrect test dependencies that can lead to test failures.
