Thanks, applied.

I listed the relevant statuses over now and updated the PQcancelStatus
docs to look more like the PQstatus one. I didn't list any statuses
that a cancel connection could never have (but a normal connection
can).

While going over the list of statuses possible for a cancel connection
I realized that the docs for PQconnectStart were not listing all
relevant statuses, so I fixed that in patch 0001.
