Pgrwl v1.0.16 Adds Base Backup Support for PostgreSQL WAL Archiving

PGRWL is a cloud-native PostgreSQL write-ahead log (WAL) receiver written in Go. It is designed as a container-friendly alternative to pg_receivewal. It supports streaming replication, encryption, compression, retention, and remote storage (S3, SFTP).

The latest release, v1.0.16, introduces a built-in base backup feature, enabling users to perform full backups alongside continuous WAL archiving. This enhancement simplifies disaster recovery and point-in-time recovery (PITR) workflows by integrating base backups directly into the tool.

Additional improvements in this release include: implementation of a restore command for base backups, streaming component for efficient data transfer, bug fixes related to base backup directories and labeling, updated documentation.
