Ok, I understood the aim. But now we can use non-local exit to do
that for not only asynchronous reading (PQgetResult()) but
synchronous (PQexec()). If we should provide a means other than
exceptions to do that, I think it should be usable for both
syncronous and asynchronous reading. conn->asyncStatus seems to
be used for the case.

Wow is the modification below?

- getAnotherTuple() now returns 0 to continue as before, and 1
  instead of EOF to signal EOF state, and 2 to instruct to exit
  immediately.

- pqParseInput3 set conn->asyncStatus to PGASYNC_BREAK for the
  last case,

- then PQgetResult() returns immediately when
  asyncStatus == PGASYNC_TUPLES_BREAK after parseInput() retunes.

- and PQexecFinish() returns immediately if PQgetResult() returns
  with aysncStatys == PGASYNC_TUPLES_BREAK.

- PGgetResult() sets asyncStatus = PGRES_TUPLES_OK if called with
  asyncStatus == PGRES_TUPLES_BREAK

- New libpq API PQisBreaked(PGconn*) returns if asyncStatus ==
  PGRES_TUPLES_BREAK can be used to check if the transfer is breaked.

Ok. I will do so.
