pgbench: Prepare commands in pipelines in advance
Failing to do so results in an error when a pgbench script tries to
start a serializable transaction inside a pipeline, because by the time
BEGIN ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE is executed, we're already in a
transaction that has acquired a snapshot, so the server rightfully
complains.

We can work around that by preparing all commands in the pipeline before
actually starting the pipeline.  This changes the existing code in two
aspects: first, we now prepare each command individually at the point
where that command is about to be executed; previously, we would prepare
all commands in a script as soon as the first command of that script
would be executed.  It's hard to see that this would make much of a
difference (particularly since it only affects the first time to execute
each script in a client), but I didn't actually try to measure it.

Secondly, we no longer use PQsendPrepare() in pipeline mode, but only
PQprepare.  There's no specific reason for this change other than no
longer needing to do differently in pipeline mode.  (Previously we had
no choice, because in pipeline mode PQprepare could not be used.)

Backpatch to 14, where pgbench got support for pipeline mode.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
