Michael Paquier 9141390813 Fix potential memory leak in pgcrypto 
When allocating a EVP context, it would have been possible to leak some
memory allocated directly by OpenSSL, that PostgreSQL lost track of if
the initialization of the context allocated failed.  The cleanup can be
done with EVP_MD_CTX_destroy().

Note that EVP APIs exist since OpenSSL 0.9.7 and we have in the tree
equivalent implementations for older versions since ce9b75d (code
removed with 9b7cd59a as of 10~).  However, in 9.5 and 9.6, the existing
code makes use of EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() and EVP_MD_CTX_create() without
an equivalent implementation when building the tree with OpenSSL 0.9.6
or older, meaning that this code is in reality broken with such versions
since it got introduced in e2838c5.  As we have heard no complains about
that, it does not seem worth bothering with in 9.5 and 9.6, so I have
left that out for simplicity.

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:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

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.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
