    GSSAPI: Improve documentation and tests · eb882a1b
    Stephen Frost authored
    The GSSAPI encryption patch neglected to update the protocol
    documentation to describe how to set up a GSSAPI encrypted connection
    from a client to the server, so fix that by adding the appropriate
    documentation to protocol.sgml.
    
    The tests added for encryption support were overly long and couldn't be
    run in parallel due to race conditions; this was largely because each
    test was setting up its own KDC to perform the tests.  Instead, merge
    the authentication tests and the encryption tests into the original
    test, where we only create one KDC to run the tests with.  Also, have
    the tests check what the server's opinion is of the connection and if it
    was GSS authenticated or encrypted using the pg_stat_gssapi view.
    
    In passing, fix the libpq label for GSSENC-Mode to be consistent with
    the "PGGSSENCMODE" environment variable.
    
    Missing protocol documentation pointed out by Michael Paquier.
    Issues with the tests pointed out by Tom Lane and Peter Eisentraut.
    
    Refactored tests and added documentation by me.
