while i like the idea of separating the logic, i don't like the results:
for example i tried this (notice that i forgot the point), and it just
says nothing (not even that the file with the extension but without
the point doesn't exist). that's why we were checking that the length
matches
$ ./pg_archivecleanup -x "bz2" /tmp 000000010000000100000058
