Allow the cluster to be optionally init'd with read access for the
group.
This means a relatively non-privileged user can perform a backup of the
cluster without requiring write privileges, which enhances security.
The mode of PGDATA is used to determine whether group permissions are
enabled for directory and file creates. This method was chosen as it's
simple and works well for the various utilities that write into PGDATA.
Changing the mode of PGDATA manually will not automatically change the
mode of all the files contained therein. If the user would like to
enable group access on an existing cluster then changing the mode of all
the existing files will be required. Note that pg_upgrade will
automatically change the mode of all migrated files if the new cluster
is init'd with the -g option.
Tests are included for the backend and all the utilities which operate
on the PG data directory to ensure that the correct mode is set based on
the data directory permissions.

Doing this suppresses Coverity warnings and might allow improved
code in some cases. The prospects of that are not so bright as
to warrant back-patching, though.
Michael Paquier, per Coverity
When requesting a particular replication slot, the new pg_basebackup
option -C/--create-slot creates it before starting to replicate from it.
Further refactor the slot creation logic to include the temporary slot
creation logic into the same function. Add new arguments is_temporary
and preserve_wal to CreateReplicationSlot(). Print in --verbose mode
that a slot has been created.

Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.
By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.
This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.
This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.
Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.
Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

Twiddle the replication-related code so that its timestamp variables
are declared TimestampTz, rather than the uninformative "int64" that
was previously used for meant-to-be-always-integer timestamps.
This resolves the int64-vs-TimestampTz declaration inconsistencies
introduced by commit 7c030783a, though in the opposite direction to
what was originally suggested.
This required including datatype/timestamp.h in a couple more places
than before. I decided it would be a good idea to slim down that
header by not having it pull in <float.h> etc, as those headers are
no longer at all relevant to its purpose. Unsurprisingly, a small number
of .c files turn out to have been depending on those inclusions, so add
them back in the .c files as needed.

Temporary replication slots will be used by default when wal streaming
is used and no slot name is specified with -S. If a slot name is
specified, then a permanent slot with that name is used. If --no-slot is
specified, then no permanent or temporary slot will be used.
Temporary slots are only used on 10.0 and newer, of course.
Allow pg_recvlogical to specify an ending LSN, complementing
the existing -—startpos=LSN option.

<sys/select.h> is required by POSIX.1-2001 to get the prototype of
select(2), but nearly no systems enforce that because older standards
let you get away with including some other headers. Recent OpenBSD
hacking has removed that frail touch of friendliness, however, which
broke some compiles; fix all the way back to 9.1 by adding the required
standard. Only vacuumdb.c was reported to fail, but it seems easier to
fix the whole lot in a fell swoop.

For some reason, we've been overlooking the fact that pg_receivexlog
and pg_recvlogical are using wrong translation domains all along,
so their output hasn't ever been translated. The right domain is
pg_basebackup, not their own executable names.
Noticed by Ioseph Kim, who's been working on the Korean translation.
Backpatch pg_receivexlog to 9.2 and pg_recvlogical to 9.4.
pg_receivexlog and pg_recvlogical error out when --create-slot is
specified and a slot with the same name already exists. In some cases,
especially with pg_receivexlog, that's rather annoying and requires
additional scripting.
Backpatch to 9.5 as slot control functions have newly been added to
pg_receivexlog, and there doesn't seem much point leaving it in a less
useful state.

The previous coding tried to handle possible failures when fsyncing a
tty or pipe fd by accepting EINVAL - but apparently some
platforms (windows, OSX) don't reliably return that. So instead check
whether the output fd refers to a pipe or a tty when opening it.

Backpatch to 9.4, where pg_recvlogical was added.
List the actions first, as they are the most important options. Group
the other options more sensibly, consistent with the man page. Correct
a few typographical errors, clarify some things.
Also update the pg_receivexlog --help output to make it a bit more
consistent with that of pg_recvlogical.
A future patch (9.5 only) adds slot management to pg_receivexlog. The
verbs create/drop don't seem descriptive enough there. It seems better
to rename pg_recvlogical's commands now, in beta, than live with the
inconsistency forever.
The old form (e.g. --drop) will still be accepted by virtue of most
getopt_long() options accepting abbreviations for long commands.

Move some more code to manage replication connection command to
streamutil.c. A later patch will introduce replication slot via
pg_receivexlog and this avoid duplicating relevant code between
pg_receivexlog and pg_recvlogical.
Author: Michael Paquier, with some editing by me.
Several comments still referred to 'initiating', 'freeing', 'stopping'
replication slots. These were terms used during different phases of
the development of logical decoding, but are no long accurate.
Also rename StreamLog() to StreamLogicalLog() and add 'void' to the
prototype.

Backpatch to 9.4 where pg_recvlogical was introduced.
Some error messages complained about --init and --stop being used
whereas the --create and --drop are the correct verbs. Fix that.
Also a XLogRecPtr was tested in a boolean fashion instead of being
compared to InvalidXLogRecPtr.

Previously there's been a mix between 'slotname' and 'slot_name'. It's
not nice to be unneccessarily inconsistent in a new feature. As a post
beta1 initdb now is required in the wake of eeca4cd35e, fix the
inconsistencies.
Most the changes won't affect usage of replication slots because the
majority of changes is around function parameter names. The prominent
exception to that is that the recovery.conf parameter
'primary_slotname' is now named 'primary_slot_name'.
The bug was caused by omitting 'I:' from the short argument list to
getopt_long(). To make similar bugs in the future less likely reorder
options in --help, long and short option lists to be in the same,
alphabetical within groups, order.
Report and fix by Michael Paquier, some additional reordering by me.
Let's complain about e.g an invalid path or permission problem sooner rather
than later. Before this patch, we would only try to open the output file
after receiving the first decoded message from the server.
Don't close stdout on SIGHUP. Also, when a SIGHUP is received, close the
file immediately, rather than only after receiving some more data from
the server. Rename a variable, to avoid mentally dealing with double
negatives (not unsynced means synced).
