Oh, I see.
I don't think we need two output fields from pg_controldata though. It's
a little redundant, and confused me when I was looking at the impact on
pg_upgrade. And it means nothing to the user until we actually have
multiple algorithms available, at which time we are better off with a
text representation.
Other than that, I think your patch is fine to accomplish the
aforementioned goal. Essentially, it just changes the bool to a uint32,
which I favor.
