pgsql: Move extra code out of the Pre/PostRestoreCommand() section.

From
Nathan Bossart
Date:
Move extra code out of the Pre/PostRestoreCommand() section.

If SIGTERM is received within this section, the startup process
will immediately proc_exit() in the signal handler, so it is
inadvisable to include any more code than is required there (as
such code is unlikely to be compatible with doing proc_exit() in a
signal handler).  This commit moves the code recently added to this
section (see 1b06d7bac9 and 7fed801135) to outside of the section.
This ensures that the startup process only calls proc_exit() in its
SIGTERM handler for the duration of the system() call, which is how
this code worked from v8.4 to v14.
