Andrew Dunstan 763aaa06f0 Add non-text output formats to pg_dumpall
pg_dumpall can now produce output in custom, directory, or tar formats
in addition to plain text SQL scripts. When using non-text formats,
pg_dumpall creates a directory containing:
- toc.glo: global data (roles and tablespaces) in custom format
- map.dat: mapping between database OIDs and names
- databases/: subdirectory with per-database archives named by OID

pg_restore is extended to handle these pg_dumpall archives, restoring
globals and then each database. The --globals-only option can be used
to restore only the global objects.

This enables parallel restore of pg_dumpall output and selective
restoration of individual databases from a cluster-wide backup.
