New patch version implementing everything you requested, incl docs and
tap tests.
The patch as offered here is what I've been asked to do by everybody
as well as I can do it. I'm very happy to receive comments and to
rework the design based upon further feedback.
I'm not completely convinced this is a great design, so I'm happy to
hear input. pg_basebackup -R is the main wrinkle.
The timeline handling has a bug at present that I'm working on, but
I'm not worried it constitutes a major problem. Obviously it will be
fixed before commit, but the patch needs more discussion
now/yesterday.
All parameters are set at PGC_POSTMASTER for now.
