The unqualified wording previously implied that any running server could
be rejoined with "standby follow", which is not the case with a
"split brain" primary.
Currently the (very generic sounding) "standby_reconnect_timeout" configuration
file parameter is used in several different contexts and it would be useful
to have more granular control over the different timeouts it's used to configure.
This patch introduces "node_rejoin_timeout", used in place of "standby_reconnect_timeout"
(which wasn't documented) when "repmgr node rejoin" is executed, to determine
how long to wait for the node to rejoin the replication cluster.
Additionally "repmgrd_standby_startup_timeout" is introduced as a timeout for
failover situations, when repmgrd executes "repmgr standby follow" to follow
a new primary, and waits for the standby to restart and become available
for connections.
"standby_reconnect_timeout" is now only relevant for "repmgr standby switchover".
Implements GitHub #454.
Previously repmgr was relying on whatever command was configured to
start PostgreSQL to determine whether the node being rejoined had
started correctly. However it's preferable to actively poll the upstream
to confirm it has restarted and actually attached as a standby before
confirming success of the "node rejoin" action.
This can be overridden with the -W/--no-wait option.
(Note that for consistency with other PostgreSQL utilities, the
short form of the --wait option is now "-w"; this is currently
only used in "repmgr standby follow".)
Also update "repmgr node rejoin" documentation with a list of supported
options, and add some useful index entries for "pg_rewind".
Implements GitHub #415.
