Prevent the already-archived WAL file from being archived again.

MasaoFujii · MasaoFujii · commit d45cd9e19ffd · 2014-10-23T16:22:46.000+09:00
Previously the archive recovery always created .ready file for the last WAL file of the old timeline at the end of recovery even when it's restored from the archive and has .done file. That is, there was the case where the WAL file had both .ready and .done files. This caused the already-archived WAL file to be archived again. This commit prevents the archive recovery from creating .ready file for the last WAL file if it has .done file, in order to prevent it from being archived again. This bug was added when cascading replication feature was introduced, i.e., the commit 5286105. So, back-patch to 9.2, where cascading replication was added. Reviewed by Michael Paquier
