Prevent instability in contrib/pageinspect's regression test.
pageinspect has occasionally failed on slow buildfarm members,
with symptoms indicating that the expected effects of VACUUM
FREEZE didn't happen. This is presumably because a background
transaction such as auto-analyze was holding back global xmin.
We can work around that by using a temp table in the test.
Since commit a7212be8b, that will use an up-to-date cutoff xmin
regardless of other processes. And pageinspect itself shouldn't
really care whether the table is temp.
Back-patch to v14. There would be no point in older branches
without back-patching a7212be8b, which seems like more trouble
than the problem is worth.
