Use FD_CLOEXEC on ListenSockets
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It's good hygiene if e.g. an extension launches a subprogram when
being loaded. We went through some effort to close them in the child
process in EXEC_BACKEND mode, but it's better to not hand them down to
the child process in the first place. We still need to close them
after fork when !EXEC_BACKEND, but it's a little simpler.

In the passing, LOG a message if closing the client connection or
listen socket fails. Shouldn't happen, but if it does, would be nice
to know.
