David E. Wheeler asked:

>> Remove libpq dependency

> Why would you want to do that???

* Removes a major dependency, allowing the module to be built anywhere.

* Faster and cleaner code, as we can create our own paths and functions. 
For example, we won't need to have all the protocol 2 branching in the 
libpq code.

* (primary reason). We can make up for things missing in libpq, and 
not have to wait for libpq to adopt them, such as being able to 
download data in chunks and not have to put everything into memory.
