server_name_with_info.v1.patch (text/x-patch) patch v1

We agreed to add a parameter called sync_standbys
http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4D1DCF5A.7070808@enterprisedb.com.
that required the concept of a server name.

I've written this patch to add a server name parameter and to send an
info message which returns the server name, attached.

For now, Sync Rep will be written to match sync_standbys against the
application_name instead. It may be possible we agree it is the right
way to go, so I've not rushed to apply the patch given here after all. 

This patch now has a lower priority than the main sync rep patch.
