    Support Subject Alternative Names in SSL server certificates. · acd08d76

    This patch makes libpq check the server's hostname against DNS names listed
    in the X509 subjectAltName extension field in the server certificate. This
    allows the same certificate to be used for multiple domain names. If there
    are no SANs in the certificate, the Common Name field is used, like before
    this patch. If both are given, the Common Name is ignored. That is a bit
    surprising, but that's the behavior mandated by the relevant RFCs, and it's
    also what the common web browsers do.
    
    This also adds a libpq_ngettext helper macro to allow plural messages to be
    translated in libpq. Apparently this happened to be the first plural message
    in libpq, so it was not needed before.
