Heikki Linnakangas	aafc05de1b	Refactor postmaster child process launching ... Introduce new postmaster_child_launch() function that deals with the differences in EXEC_BACKEND mode. Refactor the mechanism of passing information from the parent to child process. Instead of using different command-line arguments when launching the child process in EXEC_BACKEND mode, pass a variable-length blob of startup data along with all the global variables. The contents of that blob depend on the kind of child process being launched. In !EXEC_BACKEND mode, we use the same blob, but it's simply inherited from the parent to child process.

Heikki Linnakangas	f1baed18bc	Move some functions from postmaster.c to a new source file ... This just moves the functions, with no other changes, to make the next commits smaller and easier to review. The moved functions are related to launching postmaster child processes in EXEC_BACKEND mode.
