This brings the repmgr documentation build system in line with that
used by the main PostgreSQL project, and removed the restriction
that documentation must be built against PostgreSQL 9.6 or earlier.
Main formatting changes are:
- convert empty-element tags (mainly <xref/>)
- put <indexterm> sections in the correct location
- correct usage of various entities.
This functionality enables repmgrd (when running on the primary) to
monitor connected child nodes. It will log connections and disconnections
and generate events.
Additionally, repmgrd can execute a custom script if the number of connected
child nodes falls below a configurable threshold. This script can be used
e.g. to "fence" the primary following a failover situation where a new primary
has been promoted and all standbys are now child nodes of that primary.
