Refactor one use of IDENTIFY_SYSTEM in WAL streaming code of pg_basebackup

0c013e0 has done a large refactoring to unify all the code paths using
replication commands, but forgot one code path doing WAL streaming that
checks the validity of a cluster connecting to with IDENTIFY_SYSTEM.
There is a generic routine able to handle that, so make use of it in
this code path.  This impacts pg_receivewal and pg_basebackup.
