Thanks for the review.

The attached patch has regression tests - I though it would be good
to change some of the existing tests that run standby promotion to
use the SQL function instead of pg_ctl.

I have left the name though -- as far as I can tell, "promote" has
no other meaning in PostgreSQL than standby promotion, and I believe
it is only good to be more verbose if that avoids confusion.
