I found out that to avoid confusion, one really wants the message to
identify both the sending and receiving sessions.  Here's a patch
that does it that way and extends the async-notify.spec test to
perform basic end-to-end checks on LISTEN/NOTIFY.

I intentionally made the test show the lack of NOTIFY de-deduplication
that currently happens with subtransactions.  If we change this as I
proposed in <17822.1564186...@sss.pgh.pa.us>, this test output will
change.

                        regards, tom lane
