This looks good. Fields are properly enclosed and double quotes
in contents are doubled, as expected in CSV.

It goes wrong at line 7. pg_copy_from() expects lines in the
COPY "text format" documented at
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-copy.html
It implies that:
- since your call to pg_copy_from() doesn't specify a delimiter
it uses tab, not a space, so implode() must be passed a tab,
not a space.
- if there are backslashes in the contents they must be quoted
by doubling them.
- if there are newline or carriage return characters in the contents
they must be replaced by \n and \r respectively, so as to
not be confused with an end of record.
- if there are tabs in the contents they must be replaced by \t.
These replacements can all be done by a single strtr() call in php.
