Previously synchronous replication offered only the ability to confirm that all changes made by a transaction had been transferred to at most one synchronous standby server. This commit extends synchronous replication so that it supports multiple synchronous standby servers. It enables users to consider one or more standby servers as synchronous, and increase the level of transaction durability by ensuring that transaction commits wait for replies from all of those synchronous standbys. Multiple synchronous standby servers are configured in synchronous_standby_names which is extended to support new syntax of 'num_sync ( standby_name [ , ... ] )', where num_sync specifies the number of synchronous standbys that transaction commits need to wait for replies from and standby_name is the name of a standby server. The syntax of 'standby_name [ , ... ]' which was used in 9.5 or before is also still supported. It's the same as new syntax with num_sync=1. This commit doesn't include "quorum commit" feature which was discussed in pgsql-hackers. Synchronous standbys are chosen based on their priorities. synchronous_standby_names determines the priority of each standby for being chosen as a synchronous standby. The standbys whose names appear earlier in the list are given higher priority and will be considered as synchronous. Other standby servers appearing later in this list represent potential synchronous standbys. The regression test for multiple synchronous standbys is not included in this commit. It should come later.
