Refactor TAP test code for file comparisons into new routine in Utils.pm
This unifies the output used should any differences be found in the
files provided, information that 027_stream_regress did not show on
failures. TAP tests of pg_combinebackup and pg_upgrade now rely on the
refactored routine, reducing the dependency to the diff command. The
callers of this routine can optionally specify a custom line-comparison
function.
There are a couple of tests that still use directly a diff command:
001_pg_bsd_indent, 017_shm and test_json_parser's 003. These rely on
different properties and are left out for now.
