As StreamLogicalLog() states once it leaves its main loop because
time_to_abort has been switched to true, we want a clean exit.  I
think that this patch is just a more complicated way to avoid doing
twice the operations done by prepareToTerminate().  So how about
moving the prepareToTerminate() call outside the main streaming loop
and call it when time_to_abort is true?  Then, I would suggest to
change the keepalive argument of prepareToTerminate() to an enum able
to handle three values to log the reason why the tool is stopping: the
end of WAL, an interruption or a keepalive when logging.  There are
two of them now, but we want a third mode for the signals.

s/unexepected/unexpected/.  Still, it seems to me that we don't need
this comment.
