postgres_fdw: Add option to control whether to keep connections open.
This commit adds a new option keep_connections that controls
whether postgres_fdw keeps the connections to the foreign server open
so that the subsequent queries can re-use them. This option can only be
specified for a foreign server. The default is on. If set to off,
all connections to the foreign server will be discarded
at the end of transaction. Closed connections will be re-established
when they are necessary by future queries using a foreign table.
This option is useful, for example, when users want to prevent
the connections from eating up the foreign servers connections
capacity.
