(sorry for slow response). You are absolutely right, the has_password flag
must be tracked per connection in PGconn. The attached v17 implements this as
well a frontend bugfix which caused dropped connections and some smaller fixups
to make strings more translateable.
I've also included a WIP version of SCRAM channel binding in the attached
patch, it's currently failing to connect but someone here might spot the bug
before I do so I figured it's better to include it.
The 0005 patch is now, thanks to the sslinfo patch going in on master, only
containing NSS specific code.
