    explicitly disable the send deadline on the backend side
    
    As @Dridi and myself concluded, the send_timeout had no effect on
    backend connections anyway because we never set SO_SNDTIMEO (aka
    idle_send_timeout on the client side) on backend connections.
    
    With the next commit, we will fix the send_timeout on the client side and
    thus would also enable it for "dripping" writes on the backend side.
    
    To preserve existing behavior for the time being, we explicitly disable
    the timeout (actually deadline) on the backend side. There is ongoing
    work in progress to rework all of our timeouts for 7.x.
    
    Implementation note: if (VTIM_real() > v1l->deadline) evaluates to false
    for v1l->deadline == NaN
    
    Ref #3189
