[get_connect_string() gets the connection string for a foreign server]

The connection string for a foreign server depends on the nature of the
foreign server.  dblink can assume it's a PostgreSQL server, but it's
not clear how to generalize that.

Some kind of node or connection registry (i.e., "native" servers) might
be a better feature to think about here.
