Fix processing of PGC_BACKEND GUC parameters on Windows.

EXEC_BACKEND builds (i.e., Windows) failed to absorb values of PGC_BACKEND
parameters if they'd been changed post-startup via the config file.  This
for example prevented log_connections from working if it were turned on
post-startup.  The mechanism for handling this case has always been a bit
of a kluge, and it wasn't revisited when we implemented EXEC_BACKEND.
While in a normal forking environment new backends will inherit the
postmaster's value of such settings, EXEC_BACKEND backends have to read
the settings from the CONFIG_EXEC_PARAMS file, and they were mistakenly
rejecting them.  So this case has always been broken in the Windows port;
so back-patch to all supported branches.
