I looked at this quickly and decided that we can do it with some small
changes to CheckOtherDBBackends(). I propose counting the number of
conflicting PGPROCs and adding a DETAIL line to the existing error
message:
ERROR: database "%s" is being accessed by other users
DETAIL: There are %d session(s) and %d prepared transaction(s) using the database.
I'm aware that this phrasing might not translate very nicely ... anyone
have a suggestion for better wording?
