pg_upgrade: only allow template0 to be non-connectable

bmomjian · bmomjian · commit 321db71239cb · 2015-05-16T00:10:03.000-04:00
This patch causes pg_upgrade to error out during its check phase if:

(1) template0 is marked connectable
or
(2) any other database is marked non-connectable

This is done because, in the first case, pg_upgrade would fail because
the pg_dumpall --globals restore would fail, and in the second case, the
database would not be restored, leading to data loss.
