psql: complain if pg_dump custom-format is detected

Apparently, this is a very common mistake for users to make; it is
better to have it fail reasonably rather than throw potentially a large
number of errors.  Since we have a magic string at the start of the
file, we can detect the case easily and there's no other possible useful
behavior anyway.
