OK, here is attached what I had in mind as reload-ssl-v08-02.patch for
reference. This applies on top of the main patch
reload-ssl-v08-01.patch that is the same version as v7 with the issues
I reported previously as addressed. LoadedSSL is mapped with a
read-only GUC parameter that new sessions can query after connecting.
The only use case where that would be useful would be when using
sslmode=prefer to check whether the SSL context is loaded even if ssl
has been switched from off to on. But let's be honest, pg_stat_ssl
reports already this kind of information, making this patch at the end
useless because LoadedSSL does not change for an already-spawned
backend.

I am switching the patch as ready for committer. I have no more
comments about this patch.
Note to committer-san: please look only at v08-01.
