Dear Ted,

Thank you for reviewing! PSA new version.

Fixed.

Sounds good, fixed as you said. The following shows the case that two disconnections
are detected by postgres_fdw_verify_connection_states_all().

```
postgres=*# select postgres_fdw_verify_connection_states_all ();
WARNING:  could not connect to server "my_external_server2", "my_external_server"
DETAIL:  Socket close is detected.
HINT:  Plsease check the health of server.
 postgres_fdw_verify_connection_states_all 
-------------------------------------------
 f
(1 row)
```

Currently, the name of servers is concatenated without doing unique checks. IIUC
a backend process cannot connect to the same foreign server by using different
user mapping, so there is no possibility that the same name appears twice.
If the user mapping is altered in the transaction, the cache entry is invalidated
and will not be checked.
