Add tap test for pg_signal_autovacuum role

This commit provides testig coverage for ccd38024bc, checking that a
role granted pg_signal_autovacuum_worker is able to stop a vacuum
worker.

An injection point with a wait is placed at the beginning of autovacuum
worker startup to make sure that a worker is still alive when sending
and processing the signal sent.
