96255b988a Remove unused function
And standardized nomenclature on "master" rather than "primary".

8de0deddf9 Change "primary" to "master"
Personally I prefer "primary", but repmgr uses "master" so let's consolidate
on one version of the terminology for clarity.

bd19a2c868 Improve handling of event logging in rempgrd
Provide the master connection if available, and if not enable
create_event_record() to skip trying to write to the database,
but execute the notification program if defined.

98df2a5891 Fix recovery_min_apply_delay handling
- rename --min-recovery-apply-delay to --recovery-min-apply-delay
- ensure server version is 9.4 or later before writing
  recovery_min_apply_delay to recovery.conf.

This fixes changes introduced in 653e11c2a7
(the parameter was subsequently renamed).

Also reallocate the '-r' parameter to --rsync-only, which is probably
more useful.

6f61c8285b Add note about pg_basebackup -X s
We already provide a facility to pass arbitrary options to pg_basebackup.

0875b2aafa Change 'ignore_external_config_files' to a command line option
It's only used when cloning a standby and has more in common with
--fast-checkpoint

f096cca84f Fix parameter checking for STANDBY CLONE
Previous check for the master host was ineffective. We'd be better off explicitly
requiring at least hostname, database and usernames for the master rather
than relying on whatever defaults were in place when STANDBY CLONE is
run, especially as dbname and username are used in recovery.conf.

0fbb83262f Rename t_configuration_options member 'pgctl_options' to 'pg_ctl_options'
Change is to make it match the actual configuration item.

ae19c9bd5d Only execute pg_stop_backup() if pg_start_backup() was previously executed
It's not a problem per-se but produces some unnecessary and possibly
confusing errors.

ce66a7c2d2 We shouldn't terminate with an error if no event record could be created
Event records are advisory and non-critical; there may be paths
where we're not able to connect to a valid master and hence unable
to write a record. (If an 'event_notification_command' is defined,
this should serve as a backup notification of the event).

Better to fail with an error than assume a default value if an
unrecognized value is detected.
