Thread: [COMMITTERS] pgsql: Fix base backup rate limiting in presence of slow i/o

Fix base backup rate limiting in presence of slow i/o

When source i/o on disk was too slow compared to the rate limiting
specified, the system could end up with a negative value for sleep that
it never got out of, which caused rate limiting to effectively be
turned off.
