I was looking at this patch, and calling PQpipelineSync() would now
cause two calls of PQflush() to be issued when the output buffer
threshold has been reached. Could that lead to regressions?
A second thing I find disturbing is that pqAppendCmdQueueEntry() would
be called before the final pqFlush(), which could cause the commands
to be listed in a queue even if the flush fails when calling
PQpipelineSync().
Hence, as a whole, wouldn't it be more consistent if the new
PQsendPipelineSync() and the existing PQpipelineSync() call an
internal static routine (PQPipelineSyncInternal?) that can switch
between both modes? Let's just make the extra argument a boolean.
