Tom Lane 99175141c9 Improve common/logging.c's support for multiple verbosity levels.
Instead of hard-wiring specific verbosity levels into the option
processing of client applications, invent pg_logging_increase_verbosity()
and encourage clients to implement --verbose by calling that.  Then,
the common convention that more -v's gets you more verbosity just works.

In particular, this allows resurrection of the debug-grade messages that
have long existed in pg_dump and its siblings.  They were unreachable
before this commit due to lack of a way to select PG_LOG_DEBUG logging
level.  (It appears that they may have been unreachable for some time
before common/logging.c was introduced, too, so I'm not specifically
blaming cc8d41511 for the oversight.  One reason for thinking that is
that it's now apparent that _allocAH()'s message needs a null-pointer
guard.  Testing might have failed to reveal that before 96bf88d52.)
