Michael Paquier 5b0b699f74 Refactor output file handling when forking syslogger under EXEC_BACKEND
A forked logging collector in EXEC_BACKEND builds passes down file
descriptors (or HANDLEs in WIN32) through a command for files to be
reopened (for stderr and csvlog).  Some of its logic was duplicated, and
this commit refactors the code with some wrapper routines for file
reopening after forking and fd grabbing when building the command for
the fork.

While on it, this simplifies a use of "long" in the code, introduced by
ab0ba6e to take care of a warning related to MinGW-W64 when mapping a
intptr_t to a printed value.  "long" is 32-bit long on Windows, and
interoperability of Win32 and Win64 ensures that handles are always
32-bit significant, so we can just use "int" for the same result.  This
also makes the new routines more symmetric.

This change makes easier the introduction of new log destinations in the
logging collector, and this is not the only piece of refactoring
planned.  I have tested this change with EXEC_BACKEND on linux, macos,
and of course MSVC (both Win32 and Win64), but not MinGW so the
buildfarm may have something to say here.

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
