Thanks for the tip. Attached v2 adds the retry loop in the test which would
hopefully fix the cfbot.

Subject: [PATCH v2.] Make XLogFileRead try to restore .partial wal archives
Try to restore the normal archived wal segment first and, if not found, then try to restore the archived .partial wal segment.
This is safe because the next completed wal segment should contain at least the same data.
