Tom Lane 992cba94d3 Fix memory leak when initializing DH parameters in backend
When loading DH parameters used for the generation of ephemeral DH keys
in the backend, the code has never bothered releasing the memory used
for the DH information loaded from a file or from libpq's default.  This
commit makes sure that the information is properly free()'d.

Back-patch of e0e569e1d.  We originally thought the leak was minor and
not worth back-patching, but Jelte Fennema pointed out that repeated
SIGHUP's can result in very serious bloat of the postmaster, which is
then multiplied by being duplicated into eadh forked child.

Back-patch to v10; the code looked different before c0a15e07c,
and didn't have a leak in the actually-live code paths.

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:

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
