pg_basebackup: Remove short option -k
-k meant --no-verify-checksums, which is the opposite of what initdb uses -k for. After discussion, a short option does not seem necessary, so just keep the long option. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/d510f8aa-19e1-d06e-7630-ad27f7441d68%402ndquadrant.com
