The documentation for this parameter lists its type as boolean, but
it is actually an integer. Furthermore, there is no mention of how
the value is interpreted when specified without units. This commit
fixes these oversights in commit
174c480508.

- wal_summary_keep_time (boolean)
+ wal_summary_keep_time (integer)
wal_summary_keep_time configuration parameter
know will not be required for future incremental backups.
This parameter can only be set in the
postgresql.conf file or on the server command line.
+ If this value is specified without units, it is taken as minutes.
The default is 10 days. If summarize_wal = off,
existing WAL summaries will not be removed regardless of the value of
this parameter, because the WAL summarizer will not run.
