I guess mostly for interactively playing around with pipelining from psql.
But I think \getresult would be useful for testing too. This would
allow us to test that we can read part of the pipeline, without
sending a sync and waiting for everything.
To be clear \flushrequest and \flush would be necessary to make
\getresult work reliably.
