It's very simple, but prevents superuser replication connection
from being established when connection limit exceeds for
non-superusers. It seems strange to me that superuser cannot use
superuser_reserved_connections slots. If we'd like to forbid
replication connection to use the slots, I think that we should
just get rid of a superuser privilege from it instead.
