pgsql: Make pg_basebackup work with pre-9.3 servers, and add server ver

Make pg_basebackup work with pre-9.3 servers, and add server version check. A new 'starttli' field was added to the response of BASE_BACKUP command. Make pg_basebackup tolerate the case that it's missing, so that it still works with older servers. Add an explicit check for the server version, so that you get a nicer error message if you try to use it with a pre-9.1 server. The streaming protocol message format changed in 9.3, so -X stream still won't work with pre-9.3 servers. I added a version check to ReceiveXLogStream() earlier, but write that slightly differently, so that in 9.4, it will still work with a 9.3 server. (In 9.4, the error message needs to be adjusted to "9.3 or above", though). Also, if the version check fails, don't retry.
