I noticed a few days ago that method backup() in PostgresNode uses
pg_basebackup without specifying a checkpoint mode -- and the default is
a spread checkpoint, which may cause any tests that use that to take
slightly longer than the bare minimum.

I propose to make it use a fast checkpoint, as per the attached.
