RE: Allow escape in application_name (was: [postgres_fdw] add local pid to fallback_application_name)

Dear Fujii-san,

Thank you for your great works. Attached is the latest version.

It's more friendly than mine because it mentions
about specification about PQconnectdbParams(). 
Fixed like yours.

Fixed.

DO command was used because I want to
ignore the returning value of postgres_fdw_disconnect_all().
Currently this function retruns false, but if other tests are modified,
some connection may remain and the function may become to return true.

I seeked sql file and I found that this function was called by your way.
Hence I fixed.

I set four testcases:

(1) Sets neither GUC nor server option
(2) Sets server option, but not GUC
(3) Sets GUC but not server option
(4) Sets both GUC and server option

I confirmed it almost works fine, but I found that
fallback_application_name will be never used in our test enviroment.
It is caused because our test runner pg_regress sets PGAPPNAME to "pg_regress" and
libpq prefer the environment variable to fallback_appname.
(I tried to control it by \setenv, but failed...)

Fixed.

+1.

I checked other sgml file and agreed. Fixed.

And I found that including string.h is no more needed. Hence it is removed.
