    Allow psql to print COPY command status in more cases. · f70a78bc

    Previously, psql would print the "COPY nnn" command status only for COPY
    commands executed server-side.  Now it will print that for frontend copies
    too (including \copy).  However, we continue to suppress the command status
    for COPY TO STDOUT, since in that case the copy data has been routed to the
    same place that the command status would go, and there is a risk of the
    status line being mistaken for another line of COPY data.  Doing that would
    break existing scripts, and it doesn't seem worth the benefit --- this case
    seems fairly analogous to SELECT, for which we also suppress the command
    status.
