Previously, they were recognized anywhere in an incremental backup directory; now, we restrict this to places where they are expected to appear. That means this code will need updating if we ever do incremental backups of files in other places (e.g. SLRU files), but it lets you create a file called INCREMENTAL.config (or something like that) at the top level of the data directory and still have things work. Patch by me, per request from David Steele, who also reviewed. Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/5a7817da-6349-4653-8056-470300b6e512@pgmasters.net
