After some more rethinking and testing, here's a v5 that feels
fairly final to me. I realized that the logic in canAcceptConnections
was kind of backwards: it's better to check the main pmState restrictions
first and then the smart-shutdown restrictions afterwards.

I'm assuming we want to back-patch this as far as 9.6, where parallel
query began to be a thing.
