postgres_fdw: Add functions to discard cached connections.

This commit introduces two new functions postgres_fdw_disconnect()
and postgres_fdw_disconnect_all(). The former function discards
the cached connections to the specified foreign server. The latter discards
all the cached connections. If the connection is used in the current
transaction, it's not closed and a warning message is emitted.

For example, these functions are useful when users want to explicitly
close the foreign server connections that are no longer necessary and
then to prevent them from eating up the foreign servers connections
capacity.

Hmm... this commit causes the buildfarm members to fail.
I'm looking at the issue.
