Heikki Linnakangas 5070349102 libpq: Handle NegotiateProtocolVersion message differently
Previously libpq would always error out if the server sends a
NegotiateProtocolVersion message. This was fine because libpq only
supported a single protocol version and did not support any protocol
parameters. But in the upcoming commits, we will introduce a new
protocol version and the NegotiateProtocolVersion message starts to
actually be used.

This patch modifies the client side checks to allow a range of
supported protocol versions, instead of only allowing the exact
version that was requested. Currently this "range" only contains the
3.0 version, but in a future commit we'll change this.

Also clarify the error messages, making them suitable for the world
where libpq will support multiple protocol versions and protocol
extensions.

Note that until the later commits that introduce new protocol version,
this change does not have any behavioural effect, because libpq will
only request version 3.0 and will never send protocol parameters, and
therefore will never receive a NegotiateProtocolVersion message from
the server.
