"WAL archiver" is ok for me. In the current documentation we have 2 
places with "WAL archiver" and 4 with "archiver"-only 
(high-availability.sgml, monitoring.sgml).

"backend process" is an exception to the other terms because the 
standalone term "backend" is sensibly used in diverse situations.
