-----------
Add batch mode, make new libpq section:

< * Add a libpq function to support Parse/DescribeStatement capability
< * Add PQescapeIdentifier() to libpq
< * Prevent PQfnumber() from lowercasing unquoted the column name
<
< PQfnumber() should never have been doing lowercasing, but historically
< it has so we need a way to prevent it

> Currently, all query results are transfered to the libpq

> use of the first result rows while the rest are transfered, or
> held on the server waiting for them to be requested by libpq.
> One complexity is that a query like SELECT 1/col could error
> out mid-way through the result set.
