Investigate replacements for WAL-E

WAL-G is a next generation replacement for WAL-E written in Go by Citus (who now employs the author of WAL-E).

It currently doesn't support WAL prefetching or GPG encryption which I believe re critical for our usage so this is probably still premature for us but we'll probably want to move at some point in the future.

Also PGBackrest:
