commit    928e92fda30fa61688534802c849797c9986dc4c

    Fix pg_basebackup so that it accepts 0 as a valid compression level.
    
    The help message for pg_basebackup specifies that the numbers 0 through 9
    are accepted as valid values of -Z option. But, previously -Z 0 was rejected
    as an invalid compression level.
    
    Per discussion, it's better to make pg_basebackup treat 0 as valid
    compression level meaning no compression, like pg_dump.
    
    Back-patch to all supported versions.
