process startup: Remove bootstrap / checker modes from AuxProcType.
Neither is actually initialized as an auxiliary process, so it does not really
make sense to reserve a PGPROC etc for them.
This keeps checker mode implemented by exiting partway through bootstrap
mode. That might be worth changing at some point, perhaps if we ever extend
checker mode to be a more general tool.
I don't know if this was the original commit that added the --check
option or was just refactoring around it, but:
I don't see any mention of the --check option in the postgres man page.
That should be added.
