Change functionality of pg_quote regarding NULL values.
pg_quote will now only return "NULL" if the new "-null" flag is
explicitly specified by the callerd, regardless of whether a database
handle is also specified (#6).

Add a -rowbyrow option to pg_select that will return results through libpq
a row at a time via PQsetSingleRowMode rather letting libpq wait for all the rows to be returned first.

(Caveats at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/libpq-single-row-mode.html should be observed.)
