Support SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication (RFC 5802 and 7677). This introduces a new generic SASL authentication method, similar to the GSS and SSPI methods. The server first tells the client which SASL authentication mechanism to use, and then the mechanism-specific SASL messages are exchanged in AuthenticationSASLcontinue and PasswordMessage messages. Only SCRAM-SHA-256 is supported at the moment, but this allows adding more SASL mechanisms in the future, without changing the overall protocol. Support for channel binding, aka SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS is left for later. The SASLPrep algorithm, for pre-processing the password, is not yet implemented. That could cause trouble, if you use a password with non-ASCII characters, and a client library that does implement SASLprep. That will hopefully be added later. Authorization identities, as specified in the SCRAM-SHA-256 specification, are ignored. SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION provides more or less the same functionality, anyway. If a user doesn't exist, perform a "mock" authentication, by constructing an authentic-looking challenge on the fly. The challenge is derived from a new system-wide random value, "mock authentication nonce", which is created at initdb, and stored in the control file. We go through these motions, in order to not give away the information on whether the user exists, to unauthenticated users. Bumps PG_CONTROL_VERSION, because of the new field in control file. Patch by Michael Paquier and Heikki Linnakangas, reviewed at different stages by Robert Haas, Stephen Frost, David Steele, Aleksander Alekseev, and many others.

Allow SCRAM authentication, when pg_hba.conf says 'md5'. If a user has a SCRAM verifier in pg_authid.rolpassword, there's no reason we cannot attempt to perform SCRAM authentication instead of MD5. The worst that can happen is that the client doesn't support SCRAM, and the authentication will fail. But previously, it would fail for sure, because we would not even try. SCRAM is strictly more secure than MD5, so there's no harm in trying it. This allows for a more graceful transition from MD5 passwords to SCRAM, as user passwords can be changed to SCRAM verifiers incrementally, without changing pg_hba.conf. Refactor the code in auth.c to support that better. Notably, we now have to look up the user's pg_authid entry before sending the password challenge, also when performing MD5 authentication. Also simplify the concept of a "doomed" authentication. Previously, if a user had a password, but it had expired, we still performed SCRAM authentication (but always returned error at the end) using the salt and iteration count from the expired password. Now we construct a fake salt, like we do when the user doesn't have a password or doesn't exist at all. That simplifies get_role_password(), and we can don't need to distinguish the "user has expired password", and "user does not exist" cases in auth.c. On second thoughts, also rename uaSASL to uaSCRAM. It refers to the mechanism specified in pg_hba.conf, and while we use SASL for SCRAM authentication at the protocol level, the mechanism should be called SCRAM, not SASL. As a comparison, we have uaLDAP, even though it looks like the plain 'password' authentication at the protocol level.
