Add a regression test for allow_system_table_mods

Add a regression test file that exercises the kinds of commands that
allow_system_table_mods allows.

This is put in the "unsafe_tests" suite, so it won't accidentally
create a mess if someone runs the normal regression tests against an
instance that they care about.
