Daniel Gustafsson ebc8b7d441 Enable SSL library detection via PQsslAttribute()
Currently, libpq client code must have a connection handle
before it can query the "library" SSL attribute.  This poses
problems if the client needs to know what SSL library is in
use before constructing a connection string.

Allow PQsslAttribute(NULL, "library") to return the library
in use -- currently, just "OpenSSL" or NULL. The new behavior
is announced with the LIBPQ_HAS_SSL_LIBRARY_DETECTION feature
macro, allowing clients to differentiate between a libpq that
was compiled without SSL support and a libpq that's just too
old to tell.
