I have committed just the libpq change. The documentation change was redundant, because the documentation already
statedthat all libpq options are accepted. (Arguably, the documentation was wrong before.) Also, the proposed test
changedidn't seem to add much. It just checked that the foreign server option is accepted, but not whether it does
anything. If you want to develop a more substantive test, we could consider it, but I feel that since this all just
goesto libpq, we don't need to test it further.
