BUG #15603: LibPQ doesn't like replication as a valid option

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      15603
Logged by:          James Sewell
Email address:      james.sewell@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 11.1
Operating system:   Linux
Description:

When I look at the LibPQ documentation I don't see replication (which I
*think* can be true or database) listed as a valid option.

I would expect that it would be listed here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-PARAMKEYWORDS

It *is* mentioned in passing here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/protocol-replication.html

And it obviously works!

I'm confused - isn't that documented on the page you point out?
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNECT-REPLICATION

I can see it listed, perhaps you looked at the page of an older
version?

Yes, the addition is recent.  This was added in the libpq page
recently by 0c2c81b4, which is part of v11.
