The new archive-get C code can't run (yet) when encryption is enabled. Therefore move the encryption tests so we can test the new C code. We'll move it back when encryption is enabled in C.
Also, push one WAL segment with compression to test decompression in the C code.
A return code of 1 from the archive-get was being logged as an error message at info level but otherwise worked correctly.
Also improve info messages when an archive segment is or is not found.
Previously an error would be generated if other files were present and not owned by the PostgreSQL user. This hasn't been a big deal in practice but it could cause issues.
Also add tests to make sure the same logic applies with links to files, i.e. all other files in the directory should be ignored. This was actually working correctly, but there were no tests for it before.
The log-subprocess feature added in 22765670 failed to take into account the naming for remote processes spawned by local processes. Not only was the local command used for the naming of log files but the process id was not pass through. This meant every remote log was named "[stanza]-local-remote-000" which is confusing and meant multiple processes were writing to the same log.
Instead, pass the real command and process id to the remote. This required a minor change in locking to ignore locks if process id is greater than 0 since remotes started by locals never lock.
Relative link paths were being combined with the paths of previous links (relative or absolute) due to the $strPath variable being modified in the current iteration rather than simply being passed to the next level of recursion.
This issue did not affect absolute links and relative tablespace links were caught by other checks, though the error was confusing.

Offline operation runs counter to the purpose of this command, which is to check if archiving and backups are working correctly.

Implemented using the same logic as the patches adding this feature to PostgreSQL, 8694cc96 and 920a5e50. Temporary relation exclusion is enabled in PostgreSQL ≥ 9.0. Unlogged relation exclusion is enabled in PostgreSQL ≥ 9.1, where the feature was introduced.

A regression in v0.82 removed the timestamp comparison when deciding which files from the aborted backup to keep on resume. All resumed backups should be considered inconsistent. A resumed backup can be identified by checking the log for the message "aborted backup of same type exists, will be cleaned to remove invalid files and resumed".

S3 (and gateways) always set content-length or transfer-encoding but HTTP 1.1 does not require it and proxies (e.g. HAProxy) may not include either.
Suggested by Adam K. Sumner.
pgBackRest currently has no way to request new credentials so the entire command (e.g. backup, restore) must complete before the credentials expire.

Many options that were set per test can instead be inferred from the types, i.e. container, c, expect, and individual.
Also finish renaming Perl unit tests with the -perl suffix.
Configuration files are loaded from the directory specified by the --config-include-path option.
Add --config-path option for overriding the default base path of the --config and --config-include-path option.

The Perl process was exiting directly when called but that interfered with proper locking for the forked async process. Now Perl returns results to the C process which handles all errors, including signals.
This provides correct matching in the event there are system-id and db-version duplicates (e.g. after reverting a pg_upgrade).

This allows specific options in pgbackrest.conf to be ignored (and set to default) which reduces the need to write new configuration files for specific needs.
Note that boolean, non-command-line options are already negatable.
When a backup host is present, backups should only be allowed on the backup host and restores should only be allowed on the database host unless an alternate configuration is created that ignores the remote host.

Required to test restores on the backup server, a fairly common scenario.
Improve the restore function to accept optional parameters rather than a long list of parameters. In passing, clean up extraneous use of strType and strComment variables.
When more than one db was specified the path, port, and socket path would for db1 were passed no matter which db was actually being addressed.
Reported by Uspen.
If the backup cannot map a group to a name it stores the group in the manifest as false then uses either the owner of $PGDATA to set the group during restore or failing that the group of the current user. This logic was not working correctly because the selected group was overwriting the user on restore leaving the group undefined and the user incorrectly set to the group. (Reported by Jeff McCormick.)
The existing static files would not work with 32-bit or big-endian systems so create functions to generate these files dynamically rather than creating a bunch of new static files.
After a stanza-upgrade it should still be possible to restore backups from the previous version and perform recovery with archive-get. However, archive-get only checked the most recent db version/id and failed.
Also clean up some issues when the same db version/id appears multiple times in the history.

* Exclude contents of pg_snapshots, pg_serial, pg_notify, and pg_dynshmem from backup since they are rebuilt on startup.
* Exclude pg_internal.init files from backup since they are rebuilt on startup.
The archive_status directory is now recreated on restore to support PostgreSQL 8.3 which does not recreate it automatically like more recent versions do.
Also fixed log checking after PostgreSQL shuts down to include FATAL messages and disallow immediate shutdowns which can throw FATAL errors in the log.
Reported by Stephen Frost.
Modified the info command (both text and JSON output) to display the archive ID and minimum/maximum WAL currently present in the archive for the current and prior, if any, database cluster version.

The integration tests that were supposed to prevent this regression did not work as intended. They verified the contents of a table in the (supposedly) restored tablespace, deleted the table, and then deleted the tablespace. All of this was deemed sufficient to prove that the tablespace had been restored correctly and was valid.
However, PostgreSQL will happily recreate a tablespace on the basis of a single full-page write, at least in the affected versions. Since writes to the test table were replayed from WAL with each recovery, all the tests passed even though the tablespace was missing after the restore.
The tests have been updated to include direct comparisons against the file system and a new table that is not replayed after a restore because it is created before the backup and never modified again.
Versions ≥ 9.0 were not affected due to numerous synthetic integration tests that verify backups and restores file by file.
* More optimized container suite that greatly improves build time.
* Added static Debian packages for Devel::Cover to reduce build time.
* Add deprecated state for containers. Deprecated containers may only be used to build packages.
* Remove Debian 8 from CI because it does not provide additional coverage over Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 16.04.
The options accommodate systems where CAs are not automatically found by IO::Socket::SSL, i.e. RHEL7, or to load custom CAs.
Suggested by Scott Frazer.
* Combine hardlink and non/compressed in synthetic tests to reduce test time and improve coverage.
* Change log level of hardlink logging to detail.
* Cast size in S3 manifest to integer.
