There's already an "options" connection-string option for passing random
GUC settings through to the connected backend. My original plan was to
just add any such settings to the standalone backend's command line.
In this context that would work for postmaster-level GUCs. However,
if we're going to redesign this then maybe something else is more
appropriate.
