Change the order that pg_xlog and WAL archive are polled for WAL segments.
If there is a WAL segment with same ID but different TLI present in both the WAL archive and pg_xlog, prefer the one with higher TLI. Before this patch, the archive was polled first, for all expected TLIs, and only if no file was found was pg_xlog scanned. This was a change in behavior from 9.3, which first scanned archive and pg_xlog for the highest TLI, then archive and pg_xlog for the next highest TLI and so forth. This patch reverts the behavior back to what it was in 9.2. The reason for this is that if for example you try to do archive recovery to timeline 2, which branched off timeline 1, but the WAL for timeline 2 is not archived yet, we would replay past the timeline switch point on timeline 1 using the archived files, before even looking timeline 2's files in pg_xlog Report and patch by Kyotaro Horiguchi. Backpatch to 9.3 where the behavior was changed.
