Windows: Make pg_ctl reliably detect service status pg_ctl is using isatty() to verify whether the process is running in a terminal, and if not it sends its output to Windows' Event Log ... which does the wrong thing when the output has been redirected to a pipe, as reported in bug #13592.
To fix, make pg_ctl use the code we already have to detect service-ness: in the master branch, move src/backend/port/win32/security.c to src/port (with suitable tweaks so that it runs properly in backend and frontend environments); pg_ctl already has access to pgport so it Just Works. In older branches, that's likely to cause trouble, so instead duplicate the required code in pg_ctl.c.
