tests: use smaller layers in test_pg_regress (#8232)

## Problem

Debug-mode runs of test_pg_regress are rather slow since
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8105, and occasionally exceed
their 600s timeout.

## Summary of changes

- Use 8MiB layer files, avoiding large ephemeral layers

On a hetzner AX102, this takes the runtime from 230s to 190s. Which
hopefully will be enough to get the runtime on github runners more
reliably below its 600s timeout.

This has the side benefit of exercising more of the pageserver stack
(including compaction) under a workload that exercises a more diverse
set of postgres functionality than most of our tests.
