4d4ed3bcd6 Remove BDR 2.x support
The BDR 2.x support was conceptual only and was never used in
production. As BDR 2.x will be EOL'd shortly, there is no risk it will
be needed.

b74f965f54 standby clone: rename --recovery-conf-only to --replication-conf-only

2304584679 Fix handling of upstream node change check
repmgrd has a check to see if the upstream node has unexpectedly
changed, e.g. if the repmgrd service is paused and the PostgreSQL
instance has been pointed to another node.

However this check was relying on the node record on the local node
being up-to-date, which may not be the case immediately after a
failover, when the node is still replaying records updated prior
to the node's own record being updated. In this case it will
mistakenly assume the node is following the original primary
and attempt to restart monitoring, which will fail as the original
primary is no longer available.

To prevent this, we check against the node's record on the upstream
node.

Addresses issue noted in GitHub #587 and #588.

10f00b8822 repmgr: pass explicitly provided log level when executing repmgr remotely
This makes it possible to return log output when executing repmgr
remotely at a different level to the one defined in the remote
repmgr's repmgr.conf.

This is particularly useful when DEBUG output is required.
