I agree to mange these standby states in a different standpoint.
To avoid data loss, we must not promote the standby which is
catching up with the master in half way to the new master at the
failover. If clusterware can get the current standby state via SQL,
it can check whether the failover causes data loss or not
and give up failover before creating the trigger file.
