Fix for pg_upgrade status display

От

Pg_upgrade displays file names during copy and database names during
dump/restore.  Andrew Dunstan identified three bugs:

*  long file names were being truncated to 60 _leading_ characters, which
often do not change for long file names

*  file names were truncated to 60 characters in log files

*  carriage returns were being output to log files

The attached patch fixes these --- it prints 60 _trailing_ characters to
the status display, and full path names without carriage returns to log
files.

This might be a dumb question, but why limit it to 60 characters at
all instead of, say, MAXPGPATH?

I think this should be keyed off the terminal width, actually, no?  The
whole point of this is to overwrite the same line over and over, right?

It is limited to 60 only for screen display, so the user knows what is
being processed.  If the text wraps across several lines, the \r trick
to overwrite the string will not work.

That seems like overkill for a status message.  It is just there so
users know pg_upgrade isn't stuck, which was the complaint before the
message was used.

Patch applied.   It also suppresses status output to the log file unless
verbose mode is used.
