The current code probably assumes that PQsendQuery() to send "SHOW transaction_read_only" shouldn't block, because the
messageis small enough to fit in the socket send buffer. Likewise, the code in CONNECTION_AWAITING_RESPONSE case sends
authenticationdata using pg_fe_sendauth() without checking for the write-ready status. OTOH, the code in
CONNECTION_MADEcase waits for write-ready status in advance before sending the startup packet. That's because the
startuppacket could get large enough to cause pqPacketSend() to block.
So, I don't think the fix is necessary.

FWIW, if PQsendQuery() blocked during connection establishment, I think it should block in poll() called from .... from
pqWait(),because the libpq's socket is set non-blocking.
