    Merge wal_level "archive" and "hot_standby" into new name "replica" · b555ed81

    The distinction between "archive" and "hot_standby" existed only because
    at the time "hot_standby" was added, there was some uncertainty about
    stability.  This is now a long time ago.  We would like to move forward
    with simplifying the replication configuration, but this distinction is
    in the way, because a primary server cannot tell (without asking a
    standby or predicting the future) which one of these would be the
    appropriate level.
    
    Pick a new name for the combined setting to make it clearer that it
    covers all (non-logical) backup and replication uses.  The old values
    are still accepted but are converted internally.
