Change recovery_init_sync_method to PGC_SIGHUP.

The setting has no effect except during startup.  It's still nice to be
able to change it dynamically, which is expected to be pretty useful to
an admin following crash recovery when restarting the cluster is not so
appealing.

Per discussions following commits 2941138e6 and 61752afb2.
