Standardize spelling of "power of two"
Hello.
pg_resetwal and initdb has an error message like this:
msgid "argument of --wal-segsize must be a power of 2 between 1 and 1024"
In other parts in the tree, however, we spell it as "power of two". I
think it would make sense to standardize the spelling for
consistency. See the attached.
regards.

Agreed. While we have numerous "power of 2" these were the only ones in
translated user-facing messages, so I've pushed this to master (it didn't seem
worth disrupting translations for 16 as we are so close to wrapping it, if
others disagree I can backpatch).

I'd rather backpatch it. There's only 5 translations that are 100% for
initdb.po, and they have two weeks to make the change from "2" to "two".
I don't think this is a problem.

Fair enough, backpatched to v16.
