What happen if I connect to an old server? Did it print URL according
to psql version or server version? psql prints help about its version
and if user wants details about a command, clicks in the URL but what
is shown is 12 docs but user is accessing a 9.4 server. Ops... the
command failed. Check the URL again but... wait it is not 9.4 docs.
There is also the case that some commands don't exist on old versions
but URL will be printed. IMHO URL should be printed iif psql version
is the same as server version. If we want flexibility, let's add an
option to enable URL exhibition (always/same) that defaults to same.
