Bruce Momjian b1ffacddfc Rename find_my_binary/find_other_binary to
find_my_exec/find_other_exec().  Remove passing of progname to these
functions as they can find that out from argv[0], which they already
have.

Make get_progname return const char *, and update all progname variables
to be const char *.

Bruce Momjian fda15b351a As part of the work for making relocatable installs, I have re-factored
all the code that looks for other binaries.  I move FindExec into
port/exec.c (and renamed it to find_my_binary()).  I also added
find_other_binary that looks for another binary in the same directory as
the calling program, and checks the version string.

The only behavior change was that initdb and pg_dump would look in the
hard-coded bindir directory if it can't find the requested binary in the
same directory as the caller.  The new code throws an error.  The old
behavior seemed too error prone for version mismatches.
