Ensure that num_sync is greater than zero in synchronous_standby_names.

Previously num_sync could be set to zero and this setting caused
an assertion failure. This means that multiple synchronous standbys
code should assume that num_sync is greater than zero.
Also setting num_sync to zero is nonsense because it's basically
the configuration for synchronous replication. If users want not to
make transaction commits wait for any standbys,
synchronous_standby_names should be emptied to disable synchronous
replication instead of setting num_sync to zero.

This patch forbids users from setting num_sync to zero in
synchronous_standby_names. If zero is specified, an error will
happen during processing the parameter settings.

Back-patch to 9.6 where multiple synchronous standbys feature was added.

Patch by me. Reviewed by Tom Lane.
