Michael Paquier 499c9b1266 Improve some check logic in pg_receivewal
The following things are improved:
- Fetch the system identifier from the source server before any
WAL streaming loop.  This triggers extra checks to make sure that
pg_receivewal is still connected to a server with the same system ID
with a correct timeline.
- Switch umask() (for file creation mode mask) and RetrieveWalSegSize()
(to fetch the size of WAL segments) a bit later before the initial
stream attempt.  If the connection was done with a database,
pg_receivewal would fail but those commands were still executed, which
was a waste.  The slot creation and drop are now done before retrieving
the segment size.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
