In some corner cases (e.g. immediately after a switchover) where
the current primary has not yet been determined, the provided connection
might not be writeable. This prevents error messages such as
"cannot execute INSERT in a read-only transaction" generating unnecessary
noise in the logs.
Log the output of PQerrorStatus() in a couple of places where it was missing.
Additionally, always log the output of PQerrorStatus() starting with a blank
line, otherwise the first line looks like it was emitted by repmgr, and
it's harder to scan the error message.

1. The target additional-maintainer-clean was misspelled as
maintainer-additional-clean.
2. Add add missing clean targets, in particular sysutils.o, config.h,
repmgr_version.h, and Makefile.global. While at it, use a wildcard
for obj files.
3. Don't delete configure.
4. Remove generated file doc/version.sgml from the repo.
5. Have maintainer-clean recurse to the doc directory.
If "failover_validation_command" is set, and the command returns an error,
rerun the election.
There is a pause between reruns to avoid "churn"; the length of this pause
is controlled by the configuration parameter "election_rerun_interval".
This controls the maximum length of time in seconds that repmgrd will
wait for other standbys to disconnect their WAL receivers in a failover
situation.
This setting is only used when "standby_disconnect_on_failover" is set to "true".
