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.
pgBackRest currently has no way to request new credentials so the entire command (e.g. backup, restore) must complete before the credentials expire.

This implementation should be faster because it does not stat each file. It simply assumes that most directory entries are files so attempts an unlink() first. If the entry is reported by error codes to be a directory then it attempts an rmdir().
Scanning the entire backup directory can be very expensive if there are a lot of small tables. The backup manifest contains the backup directory list so use it to perform syncs instead of scanning the backup directory.
Previously, functions with sensitive options had to be logged at trace level to avoid exposing them. Trace level logging may still expose secrets so use with caution.
Any beginning literal portion of a filter expression is used to generate a search prefix which often helps keep the request small enough to avoid rate limiting.

The options accommodate systems where CAs are not automatically found by IO::Socket::SSL, i.e. RHEL7, or to load custom CAs.

* 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.
