Be more user-friendly about unsupported cases for parallel pg_restore.
If we are unable to do a parallel restore because the input file is stdin or is otherwise unseekable, we should complain and fail immediately, not after having done some of the restore. Complaining once per thread isn't so cool either, and the messages should be worded to make it clear this is an unsupported case not some weird race-condition bug. Per complaint from Lonni Friedman. Back-patch to 8.4, where parallel restore was introduced.
