An extension script runs as a single transaction, so SET LOCAL could've
been used to accomplish the result without trashing the session-lifespan
setting.

I'm not sure whether or not there was good reason to be changing the
setting at all, but it's entirely on the extension script's head that
it didn't do this in a less invasive way.
