Fix an assertion failure related to an exclusive backup.

Previously multiple sessions could execute pg_start_backup() and
pg_stop_backup() to start and stop an exclusive backup at the same time.
This could trigger the assertion failure of
"FailedAssertion("!(XLogCtl->Insert.exclusiveBackup)".
This happend because, even while pg_start_backup() was starting
an exclusive backup, other session could run pg_stop_backup()
concurrently and mark the backup as not-in-progress unconditionally.

This patch introduces ExclusiveBackupState indicating the state of
an exclusive backup. This state is used to ensure that there is only
one session running pg_start_backup() or pg_stop_backup() at
the same time, to avoid the assertion failure.

Back-patch to all supported versions.
