pgsql: Parse pg_ident.conf when it's loaded, keeping it in memory in pa

Parse pg_ident.conf when it's loaded, keeping it in memory in parsed format. Similar changes were done to pg_hba.conf earlier already, this commit makes pg_ident.conf to behave the same as pg_hba.conf. This has two user-visible effects. First, if pg_ident.conf contains multiple errors, the whole file is parsed at postmaster startup time and all the errors are immediately reported. Before this patch, the file was parsed and the errors were reported only when someone tries to connect using an authentication method that uses the file, and the parsing stopped on first error. Second, if you SIGHUP to reload the config files, and the new pg_ident.conf file contains an error, the error is logged but the old file stays in effect. Also, regular expressions in pg_ident.conf are now compiled only once when the file is loaded, rather than every time the a user is authenticated. That should speed up authentication if you have a lot of regexps in the file.
