For events generated by these commands, it may be useful to know details
of the primary node. This makes following additional parameters available
to event notification scripts:
- %p: node ID of the primary
- %a: node name of the primary
- %c: conninfo string for the primary
Implements GitHub #375
In particular, if running "repmgr cluster show" against a database
without the repmgr metadata, showing the error (rather than just
"no records found" etc.) will provide some clues about the problem.
It's possible that a node was registered with "use_replication_slots=false"
but that was later changed to "use_replication_slots=true". If the node
was not subsequently re-registered, the node record will contain an empty
slot name, which will cause any slot creation operation during
"standby follow" or "node rejoin" to fail.
To prevent this happening, check for an empty slot name and automatically
set before proceeding.
Addresses GitHub #343.
Previously the assumption was that the "repmgr" replication set would be
set up when the nodes are created, however no checks were implemented
and this was not well-documented.
Addresses GitHub #347.
This previously happened in the extension SQL code, which could
potentially cause replay problems if installing on a BDR cluster.
As this table is only required for streaming replication failover,
move the initialisation to "repmgr primary register".
Addresses GitHub #344 .
This bug was not detected before because most users work with the repmgr
user. For that reason, the repmgr schema is already in the search_path
by default.
Add the repmgr schema to the nodes table in the LEFT JOIN used for
cluster show (and in other places)

The string in question will be generated internally by repmgr as a simple
one-line string with no control characters etc., so all that needs to be
escaped at the moment are any double quotes.
get_new_primary() returns NULL if no notification for the new primary has
been received, but the code was expecting it to return UNKNOWN_NODE_ID,
which was causing repmgrd to prematurely drop out of the new primary
detection loop if no notification had been received by the time the loop
started.
Also store the electoral term as a single row, single column table,
to ensure that all repmgrds see the same turn. It is then bumped
by the winning node after it gets promoted.
Various logging improvements.
