BDR 0.9.1 drops the slot on remaining nodes correctly on node part, so
no further action is required there. Just part_by_node_names the node
you are removing, running the query from one of the nodes you wish to
retain. (0.9.1 enforces this).

If you want to retain the node you're removing as a standalone, it
should be sufficient to drop any slots on that node, truncate
bdr.bdr_nodes and bdr.bdr_connections, and remove the bdr security
label with:

    SECURITY LABEL FOR bdr ON DATABASE thedb IS NULL;

then restart the DB. You may also wish to remove 'bdr' from
'shared_preload_libraries'.
