Add pg_ls_logdir() and pg_ls_waldir() functions.

These functions are intended to be used by monitoring tools, and,
unlike pg_ls_dir(), access to them can be granted to non-superusers,
so that those monitoring tools can observe the principle of least
privilege.

Dave Page, revised by me, and also reviewed a bit by Thomas Munro.
