A newline is not added at the end of an empty query result, causing the banner of the hardcoded \echo to not be discarded. This would reflect on scripts that expect an empty result by showing the "QUERY_SEPARATOR" in the output returned back to the caller, which was confusing. This commit changes BackgroundPsql::query() so as empty results are able to work correctly, making the first newline before the banner optional, bringing more flexibility. Note that this change affects 037_invalid_database.pl, where three queries generated an empty result, with the script relying on the data from the hardcoded banner to exist in the expected output. These queries are changed to use query_safe(), leading to a simpler script. The author has also proposed a test in a different patch where empty results would exist when using BackgroundPsql.
