Heikki Linnakangas 7997fc2932 Fix error handling with 'basebackup' command.
If the 'basebackup' command failed in the middle of building the tar
archive, the client would not report the error, but would attempt to
to start up postgres with the partial contents of the data directory.
That fails because the control file is missing (it's added to the
archive last, precisly to make sure that you cannot start postgres
from a partial archive). But the client doesn't see the proper error
message that caused the basebackup to fail in the server, which is
confusing.

Two issues conspired to cause that:

1. The tar::Builder object that we use in the pageserver to construct
the tar stream has a Drop handler that automatically writes a valid
end-of-archive marker on drop. Because of that, the resulting tarball
looks complete, even if an error happens while we're building it. The
pageserver does send an ErrorResponse after the seemingly-valid
tarball, but:

2. The client stops reading the Copy stream, as soon as it sees the
tar end-of-archive marker. Therefore, it doesn't read the
ErrorResponse that comes after it.

We have two clients that call 'basebackup', one in `control_plane`
used by the `neon_local` binary, and another one in
`compute_tools`. Both had the same issue.

This PR fixes both issues, even though fixing either one would be
enough to fix the problem at hand. The pageserver now doesn't send the
end-of-archive marker on error, and the client now reads the copy
stream to the end, even if it sees an end-of-archive marker.

Fixes github issue #1715

In the passing, change Basebackup to use generic Write rather than
'dyn'.
