   <code class="function">SPI_connect</code> opens a connection from a
   C function invocation to the SPI manager.  You must call this
   function if you want to execute commands through SPI.  Some utility
   SPI functions can be called from unconnected C functions.
  </p><p>
   <code class="function">SPI_connect_ext</code> does the same but has an argument that
   allows passing option flags.  Currently, the following option values are
   available:

       means that transaction control calls <code class="function">SPI_commit</code>,
       <code class="function">SPI_rollback</code>, and
       <code class="function">SPI_start_transaction</code> are allowed.  Otherwise,
       calling these functions will result in an immediate error.
