We already use ERRCODE_T_R_SERIALIZATION_FAILURE for retryable errors,
which is almost every error. So no change required there.

ERRCODE_ADMIN_SHUTDOWN is used only in situations where we cannot
reconnect or retry because the database we said we wished to connect to
no longer exists. That needs to be a different error code to a normal,
retryable error, so that pgpool can tell the difference between things
it can help with and things it cannot help with.
