  1. Make test_target_session_attrs more robust against connection failure.

  2. Extend the abilities of libpq's target_session_attrs parameter.

  3. Mark default_transaction_read_only as GUC_REPORT.

  4. Introduce a new GUC_REPORT setting "in_hot_standby".

  5. Avoid spamming the client with multiple ParameterStatus messages.

  6. Avoid harmless Valgrind no-buffer-pin errors.

  7. Restructure libpq code to remove some duplicity

  8. libpq: Add target_session_attrs parameter.
