Commit de76884 changed an archive recovery so that the last WAL segment with old timeline was renamed with suffix .partial. It should have updated WAL-related utilities so that they can handle such .paritial WAL files, but we forgot that. This patch changes pg_archivecleanup so that it can clean up even archived WAL files with .partial suffix. Also it allows us to specify .partial WAL file name as the command-line argument "oldestkeptwalfile". This patch also changes pg_resetxlog so that it can remove .partial WAL files in pg_xlog directory. pg_xlogdump cannot handle .partial WAL files. Per discussion, we decided only to document that limitation instead of adding the fix. Because a user can easily work around the limitation (i.e., just remove .partial suffix from the file name) and the fix seems complicated for very narrow use case. Back-patch to 9.5 where the problem existed. Review by Michael Paquier. Discussion: http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAHGQGwGxMKnVHGgTfiig2Bt_2djec0in3-DLJmtg7+nEiidFdQ@mail.gmail.com
