Fujii Masao 449ab63505 postgres_fdw: Allow application_name of remote connection to be set via GUC. ...

This commit adds postgres_fdw.application_name GUC which specifies
a value for application_name configuration parameter used
when postgres_fdw establishes a connection to a foreign server.
This GUC setting always overrides application_name option of
the foreign server object. This GUC is useful when we want to
specify our own application_name per remote connection.

Previously application_name of a remote connection could be set
basically only via options of a server object. But which meant that
every session connecting to the same foreign server basically
should use the same application_name. Also if we want to change
the setting, we had to execute "ALTER SERVER ... OPTIONS ..." command.
It was inconvenient.
