Add support for generating minimal recovery.conf when doing base backups
Adds commandline option -R to pg_basebackup that creates a recovery.conf which enables standby mode using the same parameters that pg_basebackup used to connect to the master, and writes it into the output directory (or injects it in the tar file when tar format is used).
