Subject: [PATCH v7 1/3] Prepare pg_dump for additional compression methods

This commmit does some of the heavy lifting required for additional compression
methods.

First it is teaching pg_dump.c about the definitions and interfaces found in
common/compression.h. Then it is propagating those throughout the code.

Commit  bf9aa490db introduced cfp in compress_io.{c,h} with the intent of
unifying compression related code and allow for the introduction of
additional archive formats. However, pg_backup_archiver.c was not using that
API. This commit teaches pg_backup_archiver.c about cfp and is using it through
out.
