Andres Freund a586cc4b6c Use a fd opened for read/write when syncing slots during startup, take 2.
Cribbing from dfbaed4597:
    Some operating systems, including the reporter's windows, return EBADFD
    or similar when fsync() is invoked on a O_RDONLY file descriptor.
    Unfortunately RestoreSlotFromDisk() does exactly that; which causes
    failures after restarts in at least some scenarios.

    If you hit the bug the error message will be something like
    ERROR: could not fsync file "pg_replslot/$name/state": Bad file descriptor

    Simply use O_RDWR instead of O_RDONLY when opening the relevant file
    descriptor to fix the bug.

Unfortunately this fix was undone in 82a5649fb9. Re-apply, and add a
comment.

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/.
