Ian Barwick 114c1bddcb repmgr: only require 'wal_keep_segments' to be set in certain corner cases ...

Now that repmgr uses pg_basebackup's `--xlog-method=stream` setting by
default, and enables provision of `restore_command`, there's no reason
to require `wal_keep_segments` to be set in the default use-case.

`repmgr standby clone` will now only fail with an error if `wal_keep_segments`
is zero and one of the following cases applies:

* `--rsync-only` clone with no `restore_command` set
* clone with pg_basebackup and `--xlog-method=fetch`
* -w/--wal-keep-segments specified on the command line

If, for whatever reason, it's necessary to perform a standby clone
with `wal_keep_segments=0` in one of the above cases, specifying
`-w/--wal-keep-segments=0` on the command line will effectively
override the check.
