`cargo pgrx start` and `cargo pgrx run` already accept `--valgrind` and the underlying `start_postgres` already knows how to launch Postgres under valgrind, but the flag was not exposed on `cargo pgrx regress`: `From<&Regress> for Run` hardcoded `valgrind: false`, so there was no way to run the regression suite under valgrind without manually starting Postgres first. This adds the flag to `Regress` and propagates it through to `Run`.
