The handling of SSL and GSS negotiation messages in ProcessStartupPacket() could cause a recursion of the backend, ultimately crashing the server as the negotiation attempts were not tracked across multiple calls processing startup packets. A malicious client could therefore alternate rejected SSL and GSS requests indefinitely, each adding a stack frame, until the backend crashed with a stack overflow, taking down a server. This commit addresses this issue by modifying ProcessStartupPacket() so as processed negotiation attempts are tracked, preventing infinite recursive attempts. A TAP test is added to check this problem, where multiple SSL and GSS negotiated attempts are stacked.
