Per discussion on -hackers, the attached patch allow the default
database to be specified on the pg_dumpall command line, eg.

pg_dumpall [options...] [dbname]

If dbname is not specified, postgres/template1 are used per current
behaviour. If a connection cannot be made to dbname, an error is
returned and pg_dumpall exits. I've also added a similar error handler
to catch failures to connect to postgres and pg_dumpall (currently, the
dump will still be attempted).

This patch should be applied on top of my previous patch
(pg_dumpall_global_objects2.diff)

Regards, Dave
