Since babbbb5 and the introduction of LZ4 in pg_receivewal, the compression of the WAL archived is controlled by two options: - --compression-method with "gzip", "none" or "lz4" as possible value. - --compress=N to specify a compression level. This includes a backward-incompatible change where a value of 0 leads to a failure instead of no compression enforced. This commit takes advantage of a4b5754 and 3603f7c to rework the compression options of pg_receivewal, as of: - The removal of --compression-method. - The extenction of --compress to use the same grammar as pg_basebackup, with a METHOD:DETAIL format, where a METHOD is "gzip", "none" or "lz4" and a DETAIL is a comma-separated list of options, the only keyword supported is now "level" to control the compression level. If only an integer is specified as value of this option, "none" is implied on 0 and "gzip" is implied otherwise. This brings back --compress to be backward-compatible with ~14, while still supporting LZ4. This has also the advantage of centralizing the set of checks used by pg_receivewal to validate its compression options.
