cfg_program_postparser() contains 2 parts: - check the combination of MODE_MWORKER and "program" section. if "program" section was parsed, MODE_MWORKER is mandatory; - check "command" keyword, which is mandatory for this section as well. This is more appropriate now, after the master-worker refactoring, do the first part in read_cfg_in_discovery_mode, where we already check the combination of MODE_MWORKER and -S option. We need to do the second part just below, in read_cfg_in_discovery_mode() as well, because it's only the master process, who parses now program section and programs are forked before running postparser functions in step_init_2. Otherwise, mworker_ext_launch_all() will emit a log message, that program is started, but actually nothing has been launched, if 'command' keyword is absent. This not needs to be backported, as related to the master-worker refactoring.
