Add -d option to pg_basebackup and pg_receivexlog, for connection string. Without this, there's no way to pass arbitrary libpq connection parameters to these applications. It's a bit strange that the option is called -d/--dbname, when in fact you can *not* pass a database name in it, but it's consistent with other client applications where a connection string is also passed using -d.
