After playing with this along the way to fixing the sigwait issues,
I have a gripe/suggestion.  If I hit control-C while the thing
is waiting between queries, eg

regression=# select now() \watch
Tue Jul 13 13:44:44 2021 (every 2s)

              now              
-------------------------------
 2021-07-13 13:44:44.396565-04
(1 row)

Tue Jul 13 13:44:46 2021 (every 2s)

              now              
-------------------------------
 2021-07-13 13:44:46.396572-04
(1 row)

^Cregression=# 

then as you can see I get nothing but the "^C" echo before the next
psql prompt.  The problem with this is that now libreadline is
misinformed about the cursor position, messing up any editing I
might try to do on the next line of input.  So I think it would
be a good idea to have some explicit final output when the \watch
command terminates, along the line of

...
Tue Jul 13 13:44:46 2021 (every 2s)

              now              
-------------------------------
 2021-07-13 13:44:46.396572-04
(1 row)

^C\watch cancelled
regression=# 

This strikes me as a usability improvement even without the
readline-confusion angle.
