When included, this makes the base backup a complete working
"clone" of the initial database, ready to have a postmaster
started against it without the need to set up any log archiving
or similar.

While doing this, also move base backup options into
a struct instead of increasing the number of parameters
to multiple functions for each new option.

This tool makes it possible to do the pg_start_backup/
copy files/pg_stop_backup step in a single command.

There are still some steps to be done before this is a
complete backup solution, such as the ability to stream
the required WAL logs, but it's still usable, and
could do with some buildfarm coverage.

In passing, make the checkpoint request optionally
fast instead of hardcoding it.

This closes a race condition where if a tablespace was created
after the enumeration happened but before the do_pg_start_backup()
was called, the backup would be incomplete. Now that it's done
while we are in backup mode, WAL replay will recreate it during
restore.

Noted by Heikki.

Makes it easier to parse mainly the BASE_BACKUP command
with it's options, and avoids having to manually deal
with quoted identifiers in the label (previously broken),
and makes it easier to add new commands and options in
the future.

In passing, refactor the case statement in the walsender
to put each command in it's own function.

When the exit waits until the whole backup completes, it may take
a very long time.

In passing, add back an error check in the main loop so we detect
clients that disconnect much earlier if the backup is large.

Some versions of gcc complain about "variable `tablespaces' might be
clobbered by `longjmp' or `vfork'" with the original coding.  Fix by
moving the PG_TRY block into a separate subroutine.

Add BASE_BACKUP command to walsender, allowing it to stream a
base backup to the client (in tar format). The syntax is still
far from ideal, that will be fixed in the switch to use a proper
grammar for walsender.

No client included yet, will come as a separate commit.
