I unfortunately do not have anymore my notes from 2019 lying around,
but looking at the other thread and the code, it seems to me that the
problem I saw back then is that cancel request was not working at all
under --single-step because we would not set the flag when PQcancel()
failed.  Back around 5d43c3c54 the CancelRequest flag was only set
after we've successfully sent a request.  92f33bb7afd3 has changed
that globally, by setting the flag even if a cancel request could not
be sent.  So back then I am pretty sure that my line of thoughts
turned around the case where PQcancel() failed.
