Sadly it's likely there are still installations running PostgreSQL
versions released prior to February 2021, so keep the note there
for now.

doc: mention full_page_writes as prerequisite for pg_rewind
...
Anyone disabling it needs to examine their life choices, but as
we check for it anyway, might as well explicitly mention it for
completeness.

node rejoin: emit rejoin target note information as NOTICE
...
As it's possible to specify the connection information for any available
node, but currently not possible to rejoin to a node other than the
primary, explicitly mention what the rejoin target will be.

node rejoin: handle unclean shutdown in Pg13
...
From PostgreSQL 13, pg_rewind will automatically handle an unclean
shutdown itself, so as long as --force-rewind was provided, so there
is no need to fail with an error.
Note that pg_rewind handles the unclean shutdown by starting PostgreSQL
in single user mode, which it does before performing any checks as
to whether a rewind is actually necessary.
However pg_rewind doesn't take into account the possible presence
of a standby.signal file, so we remove that and recreate it after
pg_rewind was executed.

Enable "node rejoin" to join a target with a lower timeline
...
This has been possible since PostgreSQL 9.6, but the node rejoin/follow
check did not consider this possibility.

doc: rename file endings from .sgml to .xml

As they are now XML files. In PostgreSQL itself they remain with
the .sgml suffix for backwards compatibility, but that's not
important for us.
