Tom Lane c40bb11559 Prevent starting a standalone backend with standby_mode on.
This can't really work because standby_mode expects there to be more
WAL arriving, which there will not ever be because there's no WAL
receiver process to fetch it.  Moreover, if standby_mode is on then
hot standby might also be turned on, causing even more strangeness
because that expects read-only sessions to be executing in parallel.
Bernd Helmle reported a case where btree_xlog_delete_get_latestRemovedXid
got confused, but rather than band-aiding individual problems it seems
best to prevent getting anywhere near this state in the first place.
Back-patch to all supported branches.

In passing, also fix some omissions of errcodes in other ereport's in
readRecoveryCommandFile().

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:

	http://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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
