pg_receivexlog - Exit on failure to parse
In streamutil.c:GetConnection(), upgrade failure to parse the connection string to an exit(1) instead of simply returning NULL. Most callers already immediately exited, but pg_receivexlog would loop on this case, continually trying to re-parse the connection string (which can't be changed after pg_receivexlog has started). GetConnection() was already expected to exit(1) in some cases (eg: failure to allocate memory or if unable to determine the integer_datetimes flag), so this change shouldn't surprise anyone. Began looking at this due to the Coverity scanner complaining that we were leaking err_msg in this case- no longer an issue since we just exit(1) immediately.
