Well, no.
An extra round trip is required with current implementation, since I
need to call PQsendPrepare, wait for server response, call
PQsendDescribePrepared, wait for server response.

The PQsendQueryParams sends the following protocol messages:
* Parse
* Bind
* Describe Portal
* Execute
* Sync
and of course does not wait for each response, since this is done in the
state machine.
I noted that PQsendQueryParams sends a Describe Portal message, and I
found it strange that the same is not done by PQsendPrepare.
I wrote the patch to check if this was done due to some technical
reason, but this seems to not be the case.
