Make pg_basebackup work with pre-9.3 servers, and add server version check.
A new 'starttli' field was added to the response of BASE_BACKUP command.
Make pg_basebackup tolerate the case that it's missing, so that it still
works with older servers.
Add an explicit check for the server version, so that you get a nicer error
message if you try to use it with a pre-9.1 server.
The streaming protocol message format changed in 9.3, so -X stream still won't
work with pre-9.3 servers. I added a version check to ReceiveXLogStream()
earlier, but write that slightly differently, so that in 9.4, it will still
work with a 9.3 server. (In 9.4, the error message needs to be adjusted to
"9.3 or above", though). Also, if the version check fails, don't retry.
