We already have a method for libpq applications to pass GUC settings via
connection parameters.  And postgres_fdw supports passing libpq
connection parameters as server options.  So why doesn't this work here?

The reason is that postgres_fdw filters out connection settings that are
marked debug ("D"), and the "options" keyword is marked as such.  I
think this is wrong.  Just remove that designation and then this will
work.  (Perhaps filtering out the debug options is also wrong, but I can
see an argument for it.)
