Ian Barwick 405f70f769 doc: clarify barman-cli package usage
As of Barman 2.8, the barman-cli package has been merged with the core
Barman code, so is only requires an explicit mention for Barman 2.0 ~ 2.7.

Ian Barwick 577ca35de5 doc: remove reference to Barman 1.x.
Barman 1.x is very outdated and should no longer be used anyway.

Ian Barwick 1ed8b1067a Prevent use of backend string functions
From PostgreSQL 12, port.h forcibly redefines printf() et al to use
the versions defined by PostgreSQL (pg_printf() et al). As this
causes linking issues in build environments which build pre-Pg12
versions against Pg12's libpq, ensure relevant macros defined
in port.h are undefined.

Ian Barwick 10f00b8822 repmgr: pass explicitly provided log level when executing repmgr remotely
This makes it possible to return log output when executing repmgr
remotely at a different level to the one defined in the remote
repmgr's repmgr.conf.

This is particularly useful when DEBUG output is required.

Ian Barwick d5b806eeff Fix pg_control handling for PostgreSQL 12
"FullTransactionId" is not present in earlier versions, so we'll
have to #ifdef that out for those.

We should probably add more elegant checks to ensure that repmgr
is being executed against the PostgreSQL version it was built against.
In a normal production environment that will be the case as the
matching package will have been installed, so version mismatches
don't usually occur.

Note that while currently most aspects of the repmgr client are
compatible across PostgreSQL versions, the repmgrd code is very
version specific, so version specificity is a given anyway.

Ian Barwick 931da14df1 Rename some "repmgr daemon ..." commands to "repmgr service ..."
"repmgr daemon" can be interpreted to mean the commands affect the local
daemon process only. Rename the commands which affect the entire cluster
to "repmgr service ...".

The "repmgr daemon ..." form of the affected commands is retained for backwards
 compatibility.

Ian Barwick 3e812f6e91 repmgrd: always emit NOTICE when attempting to follow a new primary
Previously, if a standby's repmgrd was looping in degraded monitoring
mode looking for a new primary to follow, once a new primary was
detected the follow command would be executed without any prior
logging at non-DEBUG log levels.
