I made this ready for committer.  The patch applied except for catversion.h, the patch content looks good, and the
targettest passed as follows:
 

I set archive_command to 'sleep 10'.  pg_stop_backup() with archive wait took about 10 seconds, emitting NOTICE
messages.

postgres=# select pg_stop_backup(false, true);
NOTICE:  pg_stop_backup cleanup done, waiting for required WAL segments to be archived

NOTICE:  pg_stop_backup complete, all required WAL segments have been archived
pg_stop_backup

                                     +","")
 
(1 row)


pg_stop_backup() without archive wait returned immediately without displaying any NOTICE messages.


postgres=# select pg_stop_backup(false, false);                             pg_stop_backup

BTW, does the developer of each feature have to modify the catalog version in catversion.h?  It's a bit annoying to see
thepatch application failure on catversion.h.  Isn't it enough to modify the catalog version only when
alpha/beta/RC/finalversions are released?
