[COMMITTERS] pgsql: Don't count background workers against a user's connectionlimit

From

Date:
Don't count background workers against a user's connection limit.

Doing so doesn't seem to be within the purpose of the per user
connection limits, and has particularly unfortunate effects in
conjunction with parallel queries.

Backpatch to 9.6 where parallel queries were introduced.
