1b62354dcb v1.03: Check Command and Bug Fixes
Bug Fixes:

* Fixed an issue where keep-alives could be starved out by lots of small files during multi-threaded backup. They were also completely absent from single/multi-threaded backup resume and restore checksumming. (Reported by Janice Parkinson, Chris Barber.)
* Fixed an issue where the expire command would refuse to run when explicitly called from the command line if the db-host option was set. This was not an issue when expire was run automatically after a backup (Reported by Chris Barber.)
* Fixed an issue where validation was being running on archive_command even when the archive-check option was disabled.

Features:

* Added check command to validate that pgBackRest is configured correctly for archiving and backups. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)
* Added the protocol-timeout option. Previously protocol-timeout was set as db-timeout + 30 seconds.
* Failure to shutdown remotes at the end of the backup no longer throws an exception. Instead a warning is generated that recommends a higher protocol-timeout.
* Experimental support for non-exclusive backups in PostgreSQL 9.6 beta2. Changes to the control/catalog/WAL versions in subsequent betas may break compatibility but pgBackRest will be updated with each release to keep pace.

Refactoring:

* The pg_xlogfile_name() function is no longer used to construct WAL filenames from LSNs. While this function is convenient it is not available on a standby. Instead, the archive is searched for the LSN in order to find the timeline. If due to some misadventure the LSN appears on multiple timelines then an error will be thrown, whereas before this condition would have passed unnoticed.
* Option handling is now far more strict. Previously it was possible for a command to use an option that was not explicitly assigned to it. This was especially true for the backup-host and db-host options which are used to determine locality.
* Improved handling of users/groups captured during backup that do not exist on the restore host. Also explicitly handle the case where user/group is not mapped to a name.
* Changed version variable to a constant. It had originally been designed to play nice with a specific packaging tool but that tool was never used.

The release-date-static var has been added to allow the html footer to use the last release date instead of localtime().

6ee485cc76 Added more keep-alives.
Keep-alives were also missing from multi-threaded backup/restore and single-threaded restore.

bd25223fd6 Rename test paths for clarity.
This was worked out as part of the test suite refactor [c8f806a] but not committed with it because of the large number of expect logs changes involved.  Keeping them separate made it easier to audit the changes in the refactor.

41b27c0456 Protocol timeout option and keep-alive fixes.
* Fixed an issue where keep-alives could be starved out by lots of small files during multi-threaded operation and were completely absent during single-threaded operation when resuming from a previous incomplete backup.

Reported by Janice Parkinson.

* Added the protocol-timeout option. Previously protocol-timeout was set as db-timeout + 30 seconds.
* Failure to shutdown remotes at the end of the backup no longer throws an exception. A warning is still generated that recommends a higher protocol-timeout.

012405a33b Closed #207: Expire fails with unhandled exception.
* Fixed an issue where the expire command would refuse to run when explicitly called from the command line if the db-host option was set.  This was not an issue when expire was run after a backup, which is the usual case.
* Option handling is now far more strict. Previously it was possible for a command to use an option that was not explicitly assigned to it. This was especially true for the backup-host and db-host options which are used to determine locality.

f1e92804ce Docker container improvements.
* Containers now use a squid proxy for apt/yum to speed builds.
* Obsolete containers are removed by the <br-option>--vm-force</br-option> option.
* Greatly reduced the quantity of Docker containers built by default. Containers are only built for PostgreSQL versions specified in db-minimal and those required to build documentation. Additional containers can be built with --db-version=all or by specifying a version, e.g. --db-version=9.4.

eaa981c5aa Added execution cache for document generation.
Added an execution cache so that documentation can be generated without setting up the full container environment. This is useful for packaging, keeps the documentation consistent for a release, and speeds up generation when no changes are made in the execution list.

The change log was the last piece of documentation to be rendered in Markdown only.  Wrote a converter so the document can be output by the standard renderers.  The change log will now be located on the website and has been renamed to "Releases".

3a309256fa Closed #193: Fix perl warnings in doc/ tree.
Somewhere between perl 5.14 and 5.20, constructs like this:
    perl -e '$a = {}; keys $a'
started to throw warnings:
    keys on reference is experimental at -e line 1.

Fix by adding a bunch of %{} and @{} casts.

b710c01630 v1.01: Enhanced Info, Selective Restore, and 9.6 Support
* Enhanced text output of `info` command to include timestamps, sizes, and the reference list for all backups. Contributed by Cynthia Shang.

* Allow selective restore of databases from a cluster backup. This feature can result in major space and time savings when only specific databases are restored. Unrestored databases will not be accessible but must be manually dropped before they will be removed from the shared catalogue.

* Experimental support for non-exclusive backups in PostgreSQL 9.6 beta1. Changes to the control/catalog/WAL versions in subsequent betas may break compatibility but pgBackRest will be updated with each release to keep pace.
