Add --no-instructions parameter to initdb
Specifying this parameter removes the informational messages about how
to start the server. This is intended for use by wrappers in different
packaging systems, where those instructions would most likely be wrong
anyway, but the other output from initdb would still be useful (and thus
just redirecting everything to /dev/null would be bad).
