Since v10, we don't allow the storage of plain verifiers so if a
string does not match what we think is a correct SCRAM or MD5
verifier, then it should be processed according to
password_encryption when storing the verifier or processed according
to the auth protocol with the HBA entry matching. Your patch looks
fine to me, I would have just added a test case in password.sql (no
need to send a new patch I can take care of it).
Any objections to back-patch that stuff to v10?
