Implement dry-run mode for pg_archivecleanup
In dry-run mode, just the name of the file to be removed is printed to stdout; this is so the user can easily plug it into another program through a pipe. If debug mode is also specified, a more verbose message is printed to stderr. Author: Gabriele Bartolini Reviewer: Josh Kupershmidt
