I noticed that pgfdw_cancel_query(), which is called during (sub)abort
cleanup if necessary, also uses WARNING, instead of ERROR, to avoid
the error-recursion-trouble issue.  So I think it would be good to
move this to pgfdw_cancel_query() as well as
pgfdw_exec_cleanup_query().  Attached is a patch for that.
