pgbench: fix verbose error message corruption with multiple threads

When pgbench runs with multiple threads and verbose error reporting is
enabled (--verbose-errors), multiple clients can build verbose error
messages concurrently. Previously, a function-local static
PQExpBuffer was used for these messages, causing the buffer to be
shared across threads. This was not thread-safe and could result in
corrupted or incorrect log output.

Fix this by using a local PQExpBufferData instead of a static buffer.
This keeps verbose error messages correct during concurrent execution.

Backpatch to v15, where this issue was introduced.
