Stephen Frost eb882a1b71 GSSAPI: Improve documentation and tests
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.

Reviewed by Robbie Harwood (protocol documentation) and Michael Paquier
(rework of the tests).

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.

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