Noah Misch 8fa4a1ac61 Sync PG_VERSION file in CREATE DATABASE.
An OS crash could leave PG_VERSION empty or missing.  The same symptom
appeared in a backup by block device snapshot, taken after the next
checkpoint and before the OS flushes the PG_VERSION blocks.  Device
snapshots are not a documented backup method, however.  Back-patch to
v15, where commit 9c08aea6a3 introduced
STRATEGY=WAL_LOG and made it the default.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
