Simplify TAP tests of kerberos with expected log file contents

The TAP tests of kerberos rely on the logs generated by the backend to
check various connection scenarios.  In order to make sure that a given
test does not overlap with the log contents generated by a previous
test, the test suite relied on a logic with the logging collector and a
rotation of the log files to ensure the uniqueness of the log generated
with a wait phase.

Parsing the log contents for expected patterns is a problem that has
been solved in a simpler way by PostgresNode::issues_sql_like() where
the log file is truncated before checking for the contents generated,
with the backend sending its output to a log file given by pg_ctl
instead.  This commit switches the kerberos test suite to use such a
method, removing any wait phase and simplifying the whole logic,
resulting in less code.  If a failure happens in the tests, the contents
of the logs are still showed to the user at the moment of the failure
thanks to like(), so this has no impact on debugging capabilities.

I have bumped into this issue while reviewing a different patch set
aiming at extending the kerberos test suite to check for multiple
log patterns instead of one now.
