Having recently had a pg_dump error out due to not having enough disk it
occurs to me that it would be nice for pg_dump to remove the partial dump
file it was creating (if possible/known) instead of having it sit around
taking up that last bit of available space and itself being unusable for
restore purposes anyway. Given these tend to be large the benefit to
cleanup seems quite strong and fairly direct to accomplish since we just
created the file only a short while previous. Call it a beginner or
part-time-dba usability feature.
