Tom Lane 3945b61932 Improve handling of password reuse in src/bin/scripts programs.
This reverts most of commit 83dec5a71 in favor of having connectDatabase()
store the possibly-reusable password in a static variable, similar to the
coding we've had for a long time in pg_dump's version of that function.
To avoid possible problems with unwanted password reuse, make callers
specify whether it's reasonable to attempt to re-use the password.
This is a wash for cases where re-use isn't needed, but it is far simpler
for callers that do want that.  Functionally there should be no difference.

Even though we're past RC1, it seems like a good idea to back-patch this
into 9.5, like the prior commit.  Otherwise, if there are any third-party
users of connectDatabase(), they'll have to deal with an API change in
9.5 and then another one in 9.6.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
