67663c79aa Check removal of SECURITY DEFINER
This is just a test to see how feasible is to remove the SECURITY
DEFINER and have regular users setup their FDW.

There are still problems with this approach:
- need to grant the usage of postgres_fdw (no big issue)
- need CREATEROLE privilege. A problem in itself (see the NOTES
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createrole.html)

Aside from those, there are still practical problems:
```

   "server": {
     "extensions": "postgis",
     "dbname": "fdw_target",
     "host": "localhost",
     "port": 5432
   },
   "user_mapping": {
     "user": "fdw_user",
     "password": "foobarino"
   }
}');' as cdb_testmember_1
