As I get from the code, WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH cause process to just
proc_exit(1) without throwing FATAL.  So, in the most of situations we
do throw FATAL after seeing WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH event.  So, it's
reasonable to do the same here.  But indeed, this is a question (not
related to this patch) whether WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH should cause
process to throw FATAL.

I don't think we would get much simplicity/readability by breaking
loop instead of immediate return.  However, I reflected the changes in
the commit message.  Also I reflected that we don't distinguish any
more seeing !RecoveryInProgress() in different places.

Changed as you proposed.
