 *    - INIT_PG_OVERRIDE_ALLOW_CONNS to connect despite !datallowconn.
 *    - INIT_PG_OVERRIDE_ROLE_LOGIN to connect despite !rolcanlogin.
 *  out_dbname: optional output parameter, see below; pass NULL if not used
 *
 * The database can be specified by name, using the in_dbname parameter, or by
 * OID, using the dboid parameter.  Specify NULL or InvalidOid respectively
 * for the unused parameter.  If dboid is provided, the actual database
 * name can be returned to the caller in out_dbname.  If out_dbname isn't
 * NULL, it must point to a buffer of size NAMEDATALEN.
 *
 * Similarly, the role can be passed by name, using the username parameter,
 * or by OID using the useroid parameter.
 *
 * In bootstrap mode the database and username parameters are NULL/InvalidOid.
 * The autovacuum launcher process doesn't specify these parameters either,
 * because it only goes far enough to be able to read pg_database; it doesn't
 * connect to any particular database.  An autovacuum worker specifies a
 * database but not a username; conversely, a physical walsender specifies
 * username but not database.
 *
 * By convention, INIT_PG_LOAD_SESSION_LIBS should be passed in "flags" in
 * "interactive" sessions (including standalone backends), but not in
 * background processes such as autovacuum.  Note in particular that it
 * shouldn't be true in parallel worker processes; those have another
 * mechanism for replicating their leader's set of loaded libraries.
 *
 * We expect that InitProcess() was already called, so we already have a
 * PGPROC struct ... but it's not completely filled in yet.
