Michael Paquier f2c52eeba9 pg_waldump: Emit stats summary when interrupted by SIGINT
Previously, pg_waldump would not display its statistics summary if it
got interrupted by SIGINT (or say a simple Ctrl+C).  It gains with this
commit a signal handler for SIGINT, trapping the signal to exit at the
earliest convenience to allow a display of the stats summary before
exiting.  This makes the reports more interactive, similarly to strace
-c.

This new behavior makes the combination of the options --stats and
--follow much more useful, so as the user will get a report for any
invocation of pg_waldump in such a case.  Information about the LSN
range of the stats computed is added as a header to the report
displayed.

This implementation comes from a suggestion by Álvaro Herrera and
myself, following a complaint by the author of this patch about --stats
and --follow not being useful together originally.

As documented, this is not supported on Windows, though its support
would be possible by catching the terminal events associated to Ctrl+C,
for example (this may require a more centralized implementation, as
other tools could benefit from a common API).

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
