Here is a patch to systematically trim the trailing newlines off
PQerrorMessage() results in backend uses (dblink, postgres_fdw,
libpqwalreceiver).

I noticed that there are some inconsistent assumptions about whether
PQerrorMessage() can ever return NULL.  From the code, I think that
should not be possible, but some code appears to be prepared for it.
Other code is not.  What is correct?

Subject: [PATCH] chomp PQerrorMessage() in backend uses

PQerrorMessage() returns an error message with a trailing newline, but
in backend use (dblink, postgres_fdw, libpqwalreceiver), we want to have
the error message without that for emitting via ereport().  To simplify
that, add a function pchomp() that returns a pstrdup'ed string with the
trailing newline characters removed.
