f288e7c6b5 repmgrd: fix configuration file reload handling
Usually repmgrd requires the parameters "promote_command" and
"follow_command" to be present in the configuration file. These are
not required if "failover=manual", but the configuration sanity check
following receipt of SIGHUP was not checking that.

Addresses issue reported in GitHub #614.

309f2a7000 standby follow: don't attempt to delete slot if new upstream is same as current
An attempt will be made to delete an existing replication slot on the
old upstream node (this is important during e.g. a switchover operation
or when attaching a cascaded standby to a new upstream). However if the
standby is currently attached to the follow target node anyway, the
replication slot should never be deleted.

39003be5a3 Change version number from 5.0 to 5.0.0
Previous initial "major" releases were two-element only (e.g. 4.4);
beginning from repmgr 5 we want to ensure all version numbers have
three elements, for general consistency, including the generation
of package names.

2304584679 Fix handling of upstream node change check
repmgrd has a check to see if the upstream node has unexpectedly
changed, e.g. if the repmgrd service is paused and the PostgreSQL
instance has been pointed to another node.

However this check was relying on the node record on the local node
being up-to-date, which may not be the case immediately after a
failover, when the node is still replaying records updated prior
to the node's own record being updated. In this case it will
mistakenly assume the node is following the original primary
and attempt to restart monitoring, which will fail as the original
primary is no longer available.

To prevent this, we check against the node's record on the upstream
node.

Addresses issue noted in GitHub #587 and #588.
