Heikki Linnakangas aafc05de1b Refactor postmaster child process launching
Introduce new postmaster_child_launch() function that deals with the
differences in EXEC_BACKEND mode.

Refactor the mechanism of passing information from the parent to child
process. Instead of using different command-line arguments when
launching the child process in EXEC_BACKEND mode, pass a
variable-length blob of startup data along with all the global
variables. The contents of that blob depend on the kind of child
process being launched. In !EXEC_BACKEND mode, we use the same blob,
but it's simply inherited from the parent to child process.
