There is a known [vector of attact](https://pganalyze.com/blog/5mins-postgres-security-patch-releases-pgspot-pghostile) by creating functions and/or operators in a public scheme with the same name and signature as corresponding objects in `pg_catalog`.
Since Patroni is heavily relying on superuser connections we want to mitigate it by enforcing `search_path=pg_catalog` for all connections created by Patroni (except replication connections). It is achieved by introducing a new function, that wraps psycopg.connect() and appends ` -c search_path=pg_catalog` to `options` parameter.
In addition to that, we set connection.autocommit to True before returning it.
This commit makes it possible to configure the maximum lag (`maximum_lag_on_syncnode`) after which Patroni will "demote" the node from synchronous and replace it with another node.
The previous implementation always tried to stick to the same synchronous nodes (even if they are not optimal ones).
