Implement differentiation between CURRENT_USER and SESSION_USER as per SQL.

There is still no effective difference but it will kick in once setuid
functions exist (not included here).  Make old getpgusername() alias for
current_user.

The <function>session_user</> is the user that initiated a database
connection and is fixed for the duration of that connection. The
<function>current_user</> is the user identifier that is applicable
for permission checking. Currently it is always equal to the session
user, but in the future there might be <quote>setuid</> functions and
other facilities to allow the current user to change temporarily.
In Unix parlance, the session user is the <quote>real user</>
and the current user is the <quote>effective user</>.

Note that these functions have special syntactic status in <acronym>SQL</>;
they must be called without trailing parentheses.
