XLogReader, walsender and pg_waldump all had their own routines to read data from WAL files to memory, with slightly different approaches according to the particular conditions of each environment. There's a lot of commonality, so we can refactor that into a single routine WALRead in XLogReader, and move the differences to a separate (simpler) callback that just opens the next WAL-segment. This results in a clearer (ahem) code flow. The error reporting needs are covered by filling in a new error-info struct, WALReadError, and it's the caller's responsibility to act on it. The backend has WALReadRaiseError() to do so. We no longer ever need to seek in this interface; switch to using pg_pread().
