Yeah, to be clear: A big goal of this is definitely to be used by
poolers/proxies/middleware. Those systems will often be more frequently
restarted than the actual database servers, so being able to do that
quickly without disrupting active connections is much more important
there than with plain PostgreSQL servers.

Thanks for the review. Attached is a new patchset. I think I addressed
all of your comments (I almost fully rewrote the docs). I also fixed
two other issues that I found:
- updating docs for 3.3 in more places
- handling the GoAway message in more code paths on the client side
