This patch fixes the error message in get_major_server_version() to be
"could not parse version file", and uses the full file path name, rather
than just the data directory path.
Also, commit 4109bb5de4 added the cause of the failure to the "could
not open" error message, and improved quoting. This patch backpatches
the "could not open" cause to PG 12, where it was first widely used, and
backpatches the quoting fix in that patch to all supported releases.
