In the \conninfo psql command, the "Client User" column shows the user who established the connection, while the "Superuser" column reflects whether the current user in the current execution context is a superuser. This means the users referred to in these columns can differ, for example, if the current user was changed with the SET ROLE command. This commit adds a note to the \conninfo documentation to clarify this behavior and avoid potential confusion.
