The problem I'm seeing with this is that currently it resolves

%v (client) = 8.5devel
%V (server) = 8.5.0

Besides being inconsistent, it's also pretty misleading.  I'd imagine a 
significant use of this feature would be to know that one is connected to, 
say, a beta version.

More generally, does anyone actually need this feature?  psql complains loudly 
enough if the version numbers are not the right ones.  I don't know why this 
would need to be repeated in the prompt.
