We have been semi-accidentally relying on the fact that terminate-psql-sessions
fails silently when there are PIDs we don't have permission to terminate.
This actually happens somewhat often, generally when we're doing a series of
operations in quick succession by different users, because postgres processes
live a little longer than the `psql` shell that started them.
As part of adding ON_STOP_ERROR to all of our postgres commands, it makes
sense to enforce we don't fail here, but that means we need to actually filter
the target PIDs to only ones we can actually kill.

Also use psql -e (--echo-queries) in scripts that use ‘set -x’, so
errors can be traced to a specific query from the output.

Now that we're no longer actively debugging this tool, there's no need
to have it print everything it's doing.
This will make `test-backend` a lot nicer to use.
Previously, we used shell quoting that would result in the shell variable not
being substituted. Instead, we use `"`s that will allow for variable
substitution.
This fixes an annoying issue where one tries to rebuild the database,
and it fails due to there being existing connections.
The one thing that is potentially scary about this implementation is
that it means it's now a lot easier to accidentally drop your
production database by running the wrong script; might be worth adding
a "--force" flag controlling this behavior or something.
Thanks to Nemanja Stanarevic and Neeraj Wahi for prototypes of this
implementation! They did most of the work and testing for this.
