Description:

Would love to see more information about each of the ALTER DATABASE
parameters... a specific... "connlimit"... -1 means no connections, but what
does 0 mean? Are there users that connect even though the connection limit
is exceeded. Is there special allowances for other database connections, ie
backups?

I would expect superuser roles to ignore all of those options.  Everyone else, not so much.  connlimit=0 should have the same effect as allowcon=false

There is some enhancement at the margins here but unless you are trying to do unusual stuff it should be working as one would intuitively expect.
