pgbench: When using pipelining only do PQconsumeInput() when necessary.
Up to now we did a PQconsumeInput() for each pipelined query, asking the OS
for more input - which it often won't have, as all results might already have
been sent. That turns out to have a noticeable performance impact.
Alvaro Herrera reviewed the idea to add the PQisBusy() check, but not this
concrete patch.
