Log Message:
-----------
Fix psql's \copy command to ensure that it cycles libpq back to the idle state
(in particular, causing the ReadyForQuery message to be eaten) before
returning from do_copy.  The only known consequence of failing to do so is
that get_prompt might show a wrong result for the %x transaction status
escape, as reported by Bernd Helmle; but it's possible there are other issues.

Back-patch as far as 7.4, the oldest version supporting %x.
