IMO it should be flushed and bgworkers should use the same die() handler
as every other backend, or else one like the one in worker_spi, which just
sets a flag for testing later. If we try to change the signal handling
contracts, 80% of backend code will be unusable in bgworkers, which is not
where we want to be I think.
