So - I propose to change error message from
ERROR: database "xxx" is being accessed by other users
to
ERROR: database "xxx" is being accessed by other users or there are prepared transactions exist (please use "SELECT * FROM pg_prepared_xacts" and "ROLLBACK PREPARED ..." to fix this)
in a new PG version. Is it possible?

DEALLOCATE is for prepared *statements*; you have a prepared
*transaction*. Connect to the database you're trying to drop and
use ROLLBACK PREPARED or COMMIT PREPARED, then disconnect from that
database and try dropping it again.
