Rename FUNCTION_DEBUG_* macros to FUNCTION_LOG_* to more accurately reflect what they do. Further rename FUNCTION_DEBUG_RESULT* macros to FUNCTION_LOG_RETURN* to make it clearer that they return from the function as well as logging. Leave FUNCTION_TEST_* macros as they are.
Consolidate the various ASSERT* macros into a single ASSERT macro that is always compiled out of production builds. It was difficult to figure out when an assert would be checked with all the different types in play. When ASSERTs are compiled in they will always be checked regardless of the log level -- tying these two concepts together was not a good idea.
The C info code has already been committed but this commit wires it into main.
Also remove the info Perl code and tests since they are no longer called.
This is a partial implementation of remote storage with just enough functionality to get the info command working. The client is written in C but the server is still in Perl, which limits progress until a C server is written.
This is a complete protocol client implementation in C.
Currently there is no C server implementation so the C client is talking to a Perl server. This won't work very long, though, as the protocol format, even though in JSON, has a lot of language-specific structure. While it would be possible to maintain compatibility between C and Perl it's probably not worth the effort in the long run.
Just as in Perl there are helper functions to make constructing protocol objects easier. Currently only repository remotes are supported.
Executes a child process and allows the calling process to communicate with it using read/write io.
This object is specially tailored to implement the protocol layer and may or may not be generally applicable to general purpose
execution.
Parameters for the local/remote commands are based on parameters that are passed to the current command.
Generate parameters for the new command based on the intersection of parameters between the current command and the command to be executed.
General i/o objects for reading and writing file descriptors, in particular those that can block. In other words, these are not generally to be used with file descriptors for actual files, but rather pipes, sockets, etc.
The C code can't get the cipher type from the storage object because the C storage object does not have encryption baked in like the Perl code does.
Instead, check backup.info to see if encryption is enabled. This will need to rethought if another cipher type is added but for now it works fine.
Replace the repository path with just "the repository". The path is not important in this context and it is clearer to state where the stanzas are missing from.
The Perl code has a tendency to generate absolute paths even when they are not needed. This change helps the C and Perl storage work together via the protocol layer.
The C storage object strives to use rules whenever possible instead of generating absolute paths. This change helps the C and Perl storage work together via the protocol layer.
The prior behavior was to throw an exception but this was not very helpful when something unexpected happened. Better to at least emit the error message even if the error code is not very helpful.
There were some small differences in ordering and how the C version handled missing directories. It may be that the C version is more consistent, but for now it is more important to be compatible with the Perl version.
These differences were missed because the C info command was not wired into main.c so it was not being tested in regression. This commit does not fix the wiring issue because there will likely be a release soon and it is too big a change to put in at the last moment.
Casting to int caused large values to be slightly inaccurate so cast to uint64_t instead.
Also, use multiplication where possible since the compiler should precompute multiplied values.
SIGPIPE immediately terminates the process but we would rather catch the EPIPE error and gracefully shutdown.
Ignore SIGPIPE and throw the EPIPE error via normal error handling.
For some reason adding -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L caused MacOS builds to stop working. Combining both flags seems to work fine for all tested systems.

Including the C module after the headers required for testing meant that if headers were missing from the C module they were not caught while directly testing the C module.
The missing headers were caught in general testing, but it is frustrating to get an error in a module that has already passed while testing another module or running CI.
Move the C module include to the very top so missing headers cause immediate failures.
Bug Fixes:
* Remove request for S3 object info directly after putting it. (Reported by Matt Kunkel.)
* Correct archive-get-queue-max to be size type. (Reported by Ronan Dunklau.)
* Add error message when current user uid/gid does not map to a name. (Reported by Camilo Aguilar.)
* Error when --target-action=shutdown specified for PostgreSQL < 9.5.
Improvements:
* Set TCP keepalives on S3 connections. (Suggested by Ronan Dunklau.)
* Reorder info command text output so most recent backup is output last. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang. Suggested by Ryan Lambert.)
* Change file ownership only when required.
* Redact authentication header when throwing S3 errors. (Suggested by Brad Nicholson.)
Admonitions call out places where the user should take special care.
Support added for HTML, PDF, Markdown and help text renderers. XML files have been updated accordingly.

A number of common characters are not allowed in latex without being escaped.
Also convert some HTML-specific codes that are used in the documentation.

Keepalives may help in situations where RST packets are being blocked by a firewall or otherwise do not arrive.
The C code uses select on all reads so it should never block, but add keepalives just in case.
Suggested by Ronan Dunklau.
