nixos/postgresqlBackup: Only replace backup when successful

Previously, a failed backup would always overwrite ${db}.sql.gz,
because the bash `>` redirect truncates the file; even if the
backup was going to fail.
On the next run, the ${db}.prev.sql.gz backup would be
overwritten by the bad ${db}.sql.gz.

Now, if the backup fails, the ${db}.in-progress.sql.gz is in an
unknown state, but ${db}.sql.gz will not be written.
On the next run, ${db}.prev.sql.gz (our only good backup) will
not be overwritten because ${db}.sql.gz does not exist.

(cherry picked from commit 81c8189a841728a813bcde8604b80427fcf33522)
