    Handle errors during GSSAPI startup better · c46c85d4

    There was some confusion over the format of the error message returned
    from the server during GSSAPI startup; specifically, it was expected
    that a length would be returned when, in reality, at this early stage in
    the startup sequence, no length is returned from the server as part of
    an error message.
    
    Correct the client-side code for dealing with error messages sent by the
    server during startup by simply reading what's available into our
    buffer, after we've discovered it's an error message, and then reporting
    back what was returned.
    
    In passing, also add in documentation of the environment variable
    PGGSSENCMODE which was missed previously, and adjust the code to look
    for the PGGSSENCMODE variable (the environment variable change was
    missed in the prior GSSMODE -> GSSENCMODE commit).
    
    Error-handling issue discovered by Peter Eisentraut, the rest were items
    discovered during testing of the error handling.
