I have removed code that generates + listens to LISTEN/NOTIFY events
for Events + Confirms.

remote_listen.c now functions solely via polling, which we already
knew worked fine, as we have had a polling mode for quite a while in
the 2.0 (e.g. - CVS HEAD) code tree.

The slon _Restart LISTEN/NOTIFY handling has been left alone, as the
effects are quite independent.  Making sure that *that* is handled
rightly will be left as a further exercise to be handled separately.

Note that we *do* need to revise that, probably to remove the
_Restart; in PostgreSQL 8.4, there will no longer be a pg_listener
table, with the result that some of the usages surrounding the "slon
restart" notification type will break.
