standby clone: warn about missing pg_rewind prerequisites
...
These are not essential for cloning a standby, but useful to warn
as early as possible in case the user is intending to use pg_rewind.

node check: add --upstream option
...
We have a --downstream option to check for attached nodes, but it
would be useful to have a corresponding --upstream option too.
A following patch will adapt the behaviour of this option when executed
on the primary node.

node check: accept -S/--superuser option
...
This is mainly useful for the --data-directory-config option, which
requires permission to read pg_settings to verify that the data
directory configured in "repmgr.conf" matches the data directory
actually in use.
If pg_settings read permission is not available, repmgr will fall
back to a simple check that the data directory configured in
"repmgr.conf" is a valid PostgreSQL directory. This is not entirely
foolproof, as it's possible PostgreSQL could be using a different
data directory.

standby promote: fall back to "pg_ctl promote" if necessary
...
From PostgreSQL 12, the SQL-level function "pg_promote()" can be used
to promote a PostgreSQL instance, however usage is restricted to
superusers and users to whom explicit execution permission for this
function has been granted.
Therefore, if execution permission is not available, fall back to
"pg_ctl promote".

repmgr: improve "standby switchover" completion checks
...
There were some corner cases where "repmgr standby switchover"
would erroneously report a successful switchover, even if the
demotion candidate had not reattached to the promotion candidate.
Also improve the logging in various places to make it clearer
what is happening on which node.
