Pushed these patches.

Unless somebody protests soon I plan to push at least the
"process startup: Always call Init[Auxiliary]Process() before BaseInit()."
portion, as the inconsistent order between EXEC_BACKEND/!EB is making life
hard for me in other patches.

I don't have a dependency on
"process startup: Split single user code out of PostgresMain()."
but it does make the code a good bit more readable imo...

Greetings,

Andres Freund
