At the moment, pg_upgrade stores whether it is doing a "live check" (i.e., the user specified --check and the old server is still running) in a local variable scoped to main(). This live_check variable is passed to several functions. To further complicate matters, a few call sites provide a hard-coded "false" as the live_check argument. Specifically, this is done when calling these functions for the new cluster, for which any live-check-only paths won't apply. This commit moves the live_check variable to the global user_opts variable, which stores information about the options the user specified on the command line. This allows us to remove the live_check parameter from several functions. For the functions with callers that provide a hard-coded "false" as the live_check argument (e.g., get_control_data()), we verify the given cluster is the old cluster before taking any live-check-only paths. This small refactoring effort helps simplify some proposed changes that would parallelize many of pg_upgrade's once-in-each-database tasks using libpq's asynchronous APIs. By removing the live_check parameter, we can more easily convert the functions to callbacks for the new parallel system.
