This commit fixes an issue related to the way password verifiers hashed
with MD5 are detected, leading to possibly detect that plain passwords
are legit MD5 hashes. A MD5-hashed entry was checked based on if its
header uses "md5" and if the string length matches what is expected.
Unfortunately the code never checked if the hash only used hexadecimal
characters after the three-character prefix.
Fix 9.6 down to 9.4, where this code is present. This area of the code
has changed in 10 and upwards with the introduction of SCRAM, which led
to a different fix committed as of ccae190.

Backpatch-through: 9.4
libpq/md5.h, so that there's a clear separation between backend-only
definitions and shared frontend/backend definitions. (Turns out this
is reversing a bad decision from some years ago...) Fix up references
to crypt.h as needed. I looked into moving the code into src/port, but
the headers in src/include/libpq are sufficiently intertwined that it
seems more work than it's worth to do that.
