I took a look at the \copy but as far as I can tell this is using the
frontend (client side) of postgresql and I need to be able to do this on the
backend (server side). I don't see a way with this either to attach to the
connection that called the c function and execute the copy statement. The
DoCopy in commands/copy.h appears to me to be the server side copy command.
And I think I can get it to work if I can figure out how to attach to the
connection of the calling function and pass in the CopyStmt variable.
