c828598bfb It's unlikely this situation will occur on a witness server
Which is why the error message is for master/standby only.

e1b8982c14 Ensure witness node is registered before the repl_nodes table is copied
This fixes a bug introduced into the previous commit, where the
witness node was registered last to prevent a spurious node record
being created even if witness server creation failed.

7241391ddc Better handling of errors during witness creation
Ensure witness is only registered after all steps for creation
have been successfully completed.

Also write an event record if connection could not be made to
the witness server after initial creation.

This addresses GitHub issue #146.

c8f449f178 witness creation: extract database and user names from the local conninfo string
99.9% of the time they'll be the same as the primary connection, but
it's more consistent to use the provided local conninfo string
(from which the port is already extracted).

827ffef5f9 Add '-P/--pwprompt' option for "repmgr create witness"
Optionally prompt for superuser and repmgr user when creating a witness.
This ensures a password can be provided if the primary's pg_hba.conf
mandates it.

This deprecates '--initdb-no-pwprompt'; and changes the default behaviour of
"repmgr create witness", which previously required a superuser password
unless '--initdb-no-pwprompt' was supplied.

This behaviour is more consistent with other PostgreSQL utilities such
as createuser.

Partial fix for GitHub issue #145.

8ac5a5444e Enable repmgr standby switchover for 9.3/9.4 by recloning
A bit of a hack and unsuited for large databases - install
pg_rewind instead. Or upgrade to 9.5.

f982708b35 Add function test_db_connection()
The difference between this and establish_db_connection() is that
it outputs any connection failure as a [NOTICE] rather than an
[ERROR]; it's intended for use in e.g. polling a server to wait
for it to come up/go down, while preventing [ERROR] log lines
which may cause confusion.
