[Pkg-postgresql-public] pg_archivecleanup in postgresql-common

Responding to bug #740593, a symlink from pg_archivecleanup to
pg_wrapper was added to postgresql-common, but this seems like a mistake
to me.  pg_archivecleanup is a server-side program and does not respond
to any connection parameters, which is what pg_wrapper uses to pick an
implementation.

(I don't think there are any compatibility issues between
pg_archivecleanup of different versions, so this is mostly a theoretical
concern.  But it still seems wrong.)
