This commit addresses the following issues in commit de28140de:  
  
* When the local transaction was DEFERRABLE, begin_remote_xact() started  
  a remote transaction in the same mode without checking the remote  
  server version.  Since DEFERRABLE is supported only in v9.1 and later,  
  this would cause a syntax error on older remote servers.  Fix this by  
  propagating the mode only to remote servers that support it.  
* pgfdw_xact_callback() committed remote transactions without  
  synchronizing the read-only mode.  If the local transaction had become  
  READ ONLY since the last remote operation, this would cause deferred  
  triggers on remote servers to still run in READ WRITE mode.  Fix this  
  by synchronizing the mode at commit time.  
* The documentation did not match the actual implementation.  Update the  
  documentation to reflect the implementation.
