Add option force_initdb to PostgreSQL::Test::Cluster:init()
This option is useful to bypass the default behavior of init() which would create the data folder of a new cluster by copying it from a template previously initdb'd, if any. Copying the data folder is much cheaper than running initdb, but some tests may want to force that. For example, one scenario of pg_combinebackup updated in this commit needs a different system ID for two nodes. Previously, this could only be achieved by unsetting $ENV{'INITDB_TEMPLATE'}, which could become a problem in complex node setups by making tests less efficient.
