I could be interpreting Jacob his response incorrectly, but my
understanding is that the type of protocol changes we would actually
do in this version bump, would determine if he's either mad or happy
that we redefined PQprotocolVersion.

Let's call it PQfullProtocolVersion and make it return 30002. I'm fine
with updating the patch. But I'll be unavailable for the next ~3

Agreed, but I don't think doing so is blocked on merging a
PQfullProtocolVersion libpq function.
