The current instructions describing how to write the backup_label and tablespace_map files are confusing. For example, opening a file in text mode on Windows and copy-pasting the file's contents would result in a failure at recovery because of the extra CRLF characters generated. The documentation was not stating that clearly, and per discussion this is not considered as a supported scenario. This commit extends a bit the documentation to mention that it may be required to open the file in binary mode before writing its data.
