Mark default_transaction_read_only as GUC_REPORT.

This allows clients to find out the setting at connection time without
having to expend a query round trip to do so; which is helpful when
trying to identify read/write servers.  (One must also look at
in_hot_standby, but that's already GUC_REPORT, cf bf8a662c9.)
Modifying libpq to make use of this will come soon, but I felt it
cleaner to push the server change separately.
