Port of upstream PR cloudnative-pg#604. When CurrentPrimary is empty (first instance), streaming is not available — prevents incorrect WAL predictions with custom segment sizes during restore. Signed-off-by: ermakov-oleg <ermakovolegs@gmail.com>

Hmm. I'm pretty sure the early archival try is safe (we actually run databases with bigger WAL segments in production). Still worth fixing.

Summary
Port of upstream #604
Problem: When a brand-new cluster is starting,
cluster.Status.CurrentPrimaryis an empty string until the first pod becomes primary. TheisStreamingAvailable()function did not handle this case — it fell through to logic that assumed a non-empty primary name, potentially returning incorrect results and causing WAL archiving attempts before the cluster is ready.Fix: Added an early return
falsewhenCurrentPrimary == "", explicitly handling the bootstrapping phase. Streaming replication cannot be available if no primary has been elected yet.
