Good point.  Not doing ReachedEndOfBackup() at the end of crash
recovery feels inconsistent, especially since we care about some of
these fields in this case.

If a .signal file is required when we read a backup_label, yes that
would not be a problem because we'd always link backupEndPoint's
destiny with a requested archive recovery, but there seem to be little
love for enforcing that based on the feedback of this thread, so..
