I'm pretty sure there was no intent behind this, but it's simply
because our weird behaviour is the simplest from the client
implementation side with a fixed 4-byte key length:
1. Store two ints in a struct/class, these default to 0.
2. When you receive a BackendKeyData during startup update the two ints
3. When client wants to cancel, send a CancelRequest with the two ints.
So if step 2 is missed, then you send this all zero message. PgBouncer
has the same behaviour.
