pgsql: Ensure cleanup in case of early errors in streaming base backups

Ensure cleanup in case of early errors in streaming base backups

Move the code that sends the initial status information as well as the
calculation of paths inside the ENSURE_ERROR_CLEANUP block. If this code
failed, we would "leak" a counter of number of concurrent backups, thereby
making the system always believe it was in backup mode. This could happen
if the sending failed (which it probably never did given that the small
amount of data to send would never cause a flush) or if the psprintf calls
ran out of memory. Both are very low risk, but all operations after
do_pg_start_backup should be protected.
