+               errmsg("multiple recovery targets specified"),

+                         buf.data));

FWIW, I think that this is redundant, as the errmsg and the errdetail
are basically saying the same thing.  I'd suggest a simpler:
errmsg: cannot specify more than one recovery target
errdetail: Parameters set are: %s.

+# that does not clear another GUC's target.  Conflicts are detected at every
+# server start by DetermineRecoveryTargetType().

We don't really care about the function name here, just that multiple
targets are blocked.

+# LSN after the final 6000-row insert and WAL switch.  The set-then-clear case
+# below has no recovery target and replays all WAL, so it polls on this instead
+# of $lsn5, which would race the 5001-6000 rows.

I smell of an AI set of comments.  We could just remove the whole and
not lose value in understanding the meaning of the test.  A bunch of
the comments added to the TAP script could also be trimmed down quite
a bit, made simpler..

With recovery_target assign hook being removed for the case of
immediate, a test case that checks for a conflict between immediate
and a secondary target may be in order.

Please note that Fujii-san is registered as a committer of this patch,
so I am not planning to go beyond a review here.
