Fix: prepared statement already exists

When a conn is going to execute a query, the first thing it does is to
deallocate any invalidated prepared statements from the statement cache.
However, the statements were removed from the cache regardless of
whether the deallocation succeeded. This would cause subsequent calls of
the same SQL to fail with "prepared statement already exists" error.

This problem is easy to trigger by running a query with a context that
is already canceled.

This commit changes the deallocate invalidated cached statements logic
so that the statements are only removed from the cache if the
deallocation was successful on the server.
