c9e85996f5 repmgr: prevent a standby being cloned from a witness server
Previously repmgr would happily clone from whatever server
it found at the provided source server address. We should
ensure that a standby can only be cloned from a node which
is part of the main replication cluster.

This check fetches a list of nodes from the source server,
connects to the first non-witness server it finds, and
compares the system identifiers of the source node and the
node it has connected to. If there is a mismatch, then the
source server is clearly not part of the main replication
cluster, and is most likely the witness server.

10425d6967 doc: rename file endings from .sgml to .xml
As they are now XML files. In PostgreSQL itself they remain with
the .sgml suffix for backwards compatibility, but that's not
important for us.
