Improve reporting of error situations in find_other_exec(). This function suppressed any stderr output from the called program, which is unnecessary in the normal case and unhelpful in error cases. It also gave a rather opaque message along the lines of "fgets failure: Success" in case the called program failed to return anything on stdout. Since we've seen multiple reports of people not understanding what's wrong when pg_ctl reports this, improve the message.
