pg_verifybackup: Enable WAL parsing for tar-format backups Now that pg_waldump supports reading WAL from tar archives, remove the restriction that forced --no-parse-wal for tar-format backups.
pg_verifybackup now automatically locates the WAL archive: it looks for a separate pg_wal.tar first, then falls back to the main base.tar. A new --wal-path option (replacing the old --wal-directory, which is kept as a silent alias) accepts either a directory or a tar archive path. The default WAL directory preparation is deferred until the backup format is known, since tar-format backups resolve the WAL path differently from plain-format ones.
