For some reason the code to emit a warning and switch to uncompressed
output was placed down in the guts of pg_backup_archiver.c. This is
definitely too late in the case of parallel operation (and I rather
wonder if it wasn't too late for other purposes as well). Put it in
pg_dump.c's option-processing logic, which seems a much saner place.
Also, the default behavior with custom or directory output format was
to emit the warning telling you the output would be uncompressed. This
seems unhelpful, so silence that case.
Back-patch to 9.3 where parallel dump was introduced.
