Adjust server-side backup to depend on pg_write_server_files.

I had made it depend on superuser, but that seems clearly inferior.
Also document the permissions requirement in the straming replication
protocol section of the documentation, rather than only in the
section having to do with pg_basebackup.

Idea and patch from Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker.
