Access last_sqlstate from libpq

Hi,

I am the author of a PostgreSQL C++ client library, taoPQ (https://github.com/taocpp/taopq), wrapping the C-API of libpq.

In case of an error when I received a PGresult*, I can access the SQLSTATE by calling

PGresult* pgresult = ...;
const char* sqlstate = PQresultErrorField( pgresult, PG_DIAG_SQLSTATE );

However, this is not possible in a couple of other cases where I don't have a PGresult*, only the PGconn* is available:

* PQconnectdb (and variants)

* PQputCopyData
* PQputCopyEnd
* PQgetCopyData

* lo_* (large object functions)

Obviously, I can take the error message from PQerrorMessage and throw a generic runtime error - but it would be so much nicer if I could use the SQLSTATE to throw the correct exception class and give users more information just like I do for PGresult*.

After some research, it appears that PGconn* does have a field called last_sqlstate - it just can't be accessed.
Are there any problems adding a simple accessor to libpq? Or is there some way to access it that I'm missing?

Regards,
Daniel
