Yeah, that part of the connection URI accepts libpq options, not
Postgres-server options. The only way that you can pass options to the
backend is to use "options=-c foo=bar" in the URI, but both the
whitespace and the second equals sign need to be URI-escaped, so you end
up with something like this:
?sslmode=disable&options=-c%20jit%3Doff
This is explained (to some extent) in "34.1.1.2 Connection URIs",
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#id-1.7.3.8.3.6
and later "34.1.2 Parameter Key Words" explains that the parameter
"options" is used to pass command-line (!!) options to the server.
Maybe this bit of documentation is not explicit enough; some additional
examples might clarify things.
