Avoid invoking PQfnumber in loop constructs

When looping over the resultset from a SQL query, extracting the field
number before the loop body to avoid repeated calls to PQfnumber is an
established pattern.  On very wide tables this can have a performance
impact, but it wont be noticeable in the common case. This fixes a few
queries which were extracting the field number in the loop body.
