widowbird has failed again after af8837a10b, with the same symptoms of
a backend still lying around when attempting a database rename with a
bgworker connected to the database being renamed.
We are still not sure yet how the failure can be reached, if this is a
timing issue in the test or an actual bug in the logic used for
interruptible bgworkers. This commit adds more debugging information in
the backend to help with the analysis as a temporary measure.
Another thing I have noticed is that the queries launching the dynamic
bgworkers or checking pg_stat_activity would connect to the database
renamed. These are switched to use 'postgres'. That will hopefully
remove some of the friction of the test, but I doubt that this is the
end of the story.
