I have committed this to master.

The surrounding code has changed a bit between PG15 and master, so if we 
wanted to backpatch this, we'd need another patch from you.  However, at 
this point, I'm content to just leave it be in PG15.

Commits

  1. Disallow setting archive_library and archive_command at the same time

  2. Restore archive_command documentation

  3. Doc: improve explanation of when custom GUCs appear in pg_settings.

  4. doc: Add note about re-archiving of same WAL files in docs.

  5. In basic_archive tests, insist on wal_level='replica'.

  6. Allow archiving via loadable modules.

  7. Move the code to archive files via the shell to a separate file.
