Ian Barwick 239a548e9d "standby switchover": force checkpoint if pg_rewind requested. ...

Addresses issue described in GitHub #378.

PostgreSQL itself doesn't issue a checkpoint after promotion to ensure
the newly promoted server is available as quickly as possible, so we'll
only execute an explicit CHECKPOINT when it's actually required, i.e.
when pg_rewind will be executed. This is required as pg_rewind uses
the timeline reported in the pg_control file to compare with the
server to be rewound, and the pg_control timeline is only updated after
the first checkpoint, so there is an interval where pg_rewind will
erroneously assume both servers are on the timeline and take no action.
