Support frontend-backend protocol communication using a shm_mq.
A background worker can use pq_redirect_to_shm_mq() to direct protocol
that would normally be sent to the frontend to a shm_mq so that another
process may read them.
The receiving process may use pq_parse_errornotice() to parse an
ErrorResponse or NoticeResponse from the background worker and, if
it wishes, ThrowErrorData() to propagate the error (with or without
further modification).
Patch by me. Review by Andres Freund.
