I checked this part and this part of the code, and it looks like current
libpq doesn't allow optional requirements of higher protocol version number.

With the current state of NegotiateProtocolVersion handling I am not able
to connect to any older servers, because there is no fallback
implementation.

My personal feeling from this area is that the protocol design is done, but
it is not implemented on libpq level. My feelings can be wrong. The
protocol number is hardcoded in libpq, so I cannot change it from the
client side.

But maybe I don't see some possibility?
