* Exclude pg_internal.init files from backup since they are rebuilt on startup.
* Exclude contents of pg_snapshots, pg_serial, pg_notify, and pg_dynshmem from backup since they are rebuilt on startup.

Features:
* Up to seven standbys can be configured for backup from standby. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)

* Configuration rules are now pulled from the C library when present.
* Increase HTTP timeout for S3.
* Add HTTP retries to harden against transient S3 network errors.
Bug Fixes:
* 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. (Reported by Stephen Frost.)

Features:
* 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. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)
* Added --backup-ssh-port and --db-ssh-port options to support non-default SSH ports. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)
Refactoring:
