           Summary: Cluster test output not specific enough

I excerpt sample output from a run of the "Empty Set" test:

pass,slonik exit status
pass,slonik exit status
pass,slonik exit status
pass,slonik exit status
pass,slonik exit status
pass,second set created okay
pass,merging unsubscribed set caused an error
pass,merging empty set
pass,slonik exit status

This has several tests which pass with exactly the same string as output (e.g.
- the first 5 lines are identical).

If I do some re-parsing (e.g. - as to generate results to summarize and report
on this as part of some regular regression test), the "tuples" aren't unique so
as to allow me to reference them.  In effect, there's no "primary key" on this
:-).

I see two resolutions, both of which likely have some proper involvement:

a) The calls to assertCheck() should be passing more meaningful output, so that
they are not all merely "slonik exit status"

https://github.com/cbbrowne/slony1-engine/commit/69c7b2d4418c7741bbd0c3c10167a8f865e3ce60

b) assertCheck() should be modified to add a 3rd column that is a surrogate for
a primary key, e.g., a sequential value?

I have committed this to master; that is perhaps arguable...
