Re: psql - add SHOW_ALL_RESULTS option

... btw, Coverity also doesn't like this fragment of the patch:

/srv/coverity/git/pgsql-git/postgresql/src/bin/psql/common.c: 1084 in 
ShowNoticeMessage()
1078     static void
1079     ShowNoticeMessage(t_notice_messages *notes)
1080     {
1081            PQExpBufferData *current = notes->in_flip ? &notes->flip : 
&notes->flop;
1082            if (current->data != NULL && *current->data != '\0')
1083                    pg_log_info("%s", current->data);
>>>     CID 1476041:  Null pointer dereferences  (FORWARD_NULL)
>>>     Passing "current" to "resetPQExpBuffer", which dereferences null 
>>> "current->data".
1084            resetPQExpBuffer(current);
1085     }
1086     
1087     /*
1088      * SendQueryAndProcessResults: utility function for use by SendQuery()
1089      * and PSQLexecWatch().

Its point here is that either the test of "current->data != NULL" is
useless, or resetPQExpBuffer needs such a test too.  I'm inclined
to guess the former.

(Just as a matter of style, I don't care for the flip/flop terminology
here, not least because it's not clear why exactly two buffers suffice
and will suffice forevermore.  I'd be inclined to use an array of
two buffers with an index variable.)
