Thread: pgsql: Doc: add a short summary of available authentication methods.
Doc: add a short summary of available authentication methods. The "auth-methods" <sect1> used to include descriptions of all our authentication methods. Commit 56811e573 promoted its child <sect2>'s to <sect1>'s, which has advantages but also created some issues: * The auth-methods page itself is essentially empty/useless. * Links that pointed to "auth-methods" as a placeholder for all auth methods were rendered a bit nonsensical. * DocBook no longer provides a subsection table-of-contents here, which formerly was a useful if terse summary of available auth methods. To improve matters, add a handwritten list of all the auth methods. Per gripe from Dave Cramer. Back-patch to v11 where the previous commit came in.
