It was never intended to be a user-accessible switch, just something to
protect template0.
I don't agree with Simon's proposal to hard-wire protection for
template0 instead; that's ugly, and sometimes you do need to be able to
turn it off. But that's something that should be done only with adult
supervision, so having a nice friendly ALTER DATABASE command for it
seems exactly the wrong thing.
