Stephen Frost 39969e2a1e Remove exclusive backup mode ... Exclusive-mode backups have been deprecated since 9.6 (when non-exclusive backups were introduced) due to the issues they can cause should the system crash while one is running and generally because non-exclusive provides a much better interface. Further, exclusive backup mode wasn't really being tested (nor was most of the related code- like being able to log in just to stop an exclusive backup and the bits of the state machine related to that) and having to possibly deal with an exclusive backup and the backup_label file existing during pg_basebackup, pg_rewind, etc, added other complexities that we are better off without. This patch removes the exclusive backup mode, the various special cases for dealing with it, and greatly simplifies the online backup code and documentation.
