For easier development using Docker the $HOSTNAME variable will be used to
name the running Patroni. Bumped some _segments postgresql settings to ensure
WAL files are not removed very quickly.
Increased the timeout for the post request for Patroni, as some operations
(failover) may take considerable time to complete.
The failover to a specific member was broken in patronictl as it used a wrong
key to specify the member to failover to.
Pretty printing fix for xlog lag, to prevent false negatives to show up and have
good alignment.
Replica creation methods are configured via the 'create_replica_method'
parameter in the patroni configuration file. The value should contain a list
of acceptable replica creation method names. Patroni attempts to call them one
by one, until it finds one that returns 0. If there is a configuration section
with the same name as the replica creation method, the values in this section
are converted to the command-line options and appended to the command name.
The command name is constructued either from the 'command' key in the method
name configuration section, or by taking the replica creation method name
verbatim.
The wal_e replica creation method is included with Patroni (wale_restore.py
script), in addition to the 'basebackup', which is a special method: it's taken
by default, if no create_replica_method parameter is specified, or if it is
empty. This merge also reverses the decision to move the basebackup repli
method ouside of the core patroni.

- command is deleted from method_config without checking whether
it was there in the first place.
- write_recovery_conf is called before the recovery file is restored
from the backup location.
Previously, patroni would die after receiving an exception
other than RetryFailedError, etcd.EtcdException from etcd.
We have observed an AttributeError raised by etcd on some
occasions. With this change, we demote ourselves, but not
terminate on such exceptions.
Some refactoring to reuse some codepaths.
A dsn option is now added, it is useful in scripts like so:
psql -d "$(patronictl dsn alpha)"
Restarting has been extended to allow restarting based on role.
