General information

Older EDB (EnterpriseDB) versions used edb-postmaster as process name (instead of the newer edb-postgres). This causes mk_postgres.py to miss these processes because it only accepts edb-postgres.

I am not a Windows guy but from what I read the process name under Windows is always postgres.exe, EDB or not. Bc of that the patch only handles Linux.

Proposed changes

This patch simply adds the old process name under Linux.
