## Problem
Extension tests were previously run sequentially, resulting in
unnecessary wait time and underutilization of available CPU cores.
## Summary of changes
Tests are now executed in a customizable number of parallel threads
using separate database branches. This reduces overall test time by
approximately 50% (e.g., on my laptop, parallel test lasts 173s, while
sequential one lasts 340s) and increases the load on the pageserver,
providing better test coverage.

## Problem
We didn't test the h3 extension in our test suite.
## Summary of changes
Added tests for h3 and h3-postgis extensions
Includes upgrade test for h3

## Problem
We have not synced `force-test-extensions-upgrade.yml` with the last
changes.
The variable `TEST_EXTENSIONS_UPGRADE` was ignored in the script and
actually set to `NEW_COMPUTE_TAG` while it should be set to
`OLD_COMPUTE_TAG` as we are about to run compatibility tests.
## Summary of changes
The tag names were synced, the logic was fixed.
## Problem
CI does not pass for the compute release due to the absence of some
images
## Summary of changes
Now we use the images from the old non-compute releases for non-compute
images
## Problem
We created extensions in a single database. The tests could interfere,
i.e., discover some service tables left by other extensions and produce
unexpected results.
## Summary of changes
The tests are now run in a separate timeline, so only one extension owns
the database, which prevents interference.
## Problem
Release CI is slow, because we're doing unnecessary work, for example
building compute images on storage releases and vice versa.
## Summary of changes
- Extract tag generation into reusable workflow and extend it with
fetching of previous component releases
- Don't build neon images on compute releases and don't build compute
images on proxy and storage releases
- Reuse images from previous releases for tests on branches where we
don't build those images
## Open questions
- We differentiate between `TAG` and `COMPUTE_TAG` in a few places, but
we don't differentiate between storage and proxy releases. Since they
use the same image, this will continue to work, but I'm not sure this is
what we want.
## Problem
We use `docker cp` to copy the files required for the extension tests
now.
It causes problems if we run older images with the newer source tree.
## Summary of changes
Copying the files was moved to the compute Dockerfile.
## Problem
The nightly test discovered problems in the extensions upgrade test.
1. `PLv8` has different versions on PGv17 and PGv16 and a different test
set, which was not implemented correctly
[sample](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/13382330475/job/37372930271)
2. The same for `semver`
[sample](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/13382330475/job/37372930017)
3. `pgtap` interfered with the other tests, e.g. tables, created by
other extensions caused the tests to fail.
## Summary of changes
The discovered problems were fixed.
1. The tests list for `PLv8` is now generated using the original
Makefile
2. The patches for `semver` are now split for PGv16 and PGv17.
3. `pgtap` is being tested in a separate database now.

## Problem
We run the compatibility tests only if we are upgrading the extension.
An accidental code change may break the test itself, so we have to check
this code as well.
## Summary of changes
The test is scheduled once a day to save time and resources.

## Problem
We have to test the extensions, shipped with Neon for compatibility
before the upgrade.
## Summary of changes
Added the test for compatibility with the upgraded extensions.
