Do not allow removal of superuser privileges from bootstrap user.
A bootstrap user who is not a superuser will still own many important system objects, such as the pg_catalog schema, that will likely allow that user to regain superuser status. Therefore, allowing the superuser property to be removed from the superuser creates a false perception of security where none exists. Although removing superuser from the bootstrap user is also a bad idea and should be considered unsupported in all released versions, no back-patch, as this is a behavior change.
