Hi Jim!
Thanks for your review and rebase!

> 

The message is truncated inside BackendMsgSet function, so I see a little
point in truncating it at pg_terminate_backend..

Also, changing the stpncpy() to strlcpy() breaks the logic
of returning result length of the message and NOTICE message about it,
so I reverted this change. But this note make me think about adding test
to truncation logic, so I added it in v4.

Best regards,
Roman Khapov

Subject: [PATCH v4] message in pg_terminate_backend and pg_cancel_backend

Sometimes it is useful to terminate some backend
process with additional message from admin.

This patch introduces a new argument, message to
pg_terminate_backend and pg_cancel_backend.
The message, that will be passed into
FATAL/ERROR packet when terminating/canceling backend.

To do that, the patch introduces new module: BackendMsg - shared memory
region that holds pairs of (message, pid) which are checked in ProcessInterrupts()

Ex. of usage:
postgres=# select pg_terminate_backend(pg_backend_pid(), 0, 'Some message');
FATAL:  terminating connection due to administrator command: Some message
