recoveryWakeupLatch is used by the startup process, but it has nothing
to do with do_pg_stop_backup(). Why are you doing that?
I can get behind the change for the truncation lock when finishing a
VACUUM as that helps with monitoring. Now, I am not sure I get the
point of changing anything for {post,pre}_auth_delay that are
developer options. Please note that at this stage we don't know the
backend activity in pg_stat_activity, so the use of wait events is not
really interesting. On top of that, not reacting on signals can be
interesting to keep as a behavior for developers?
